A lorry driver was left stunned after getting stuck behind a mobility scooter crawling along at just 10mph on a busy 70mph road.

Jim Stevens found himself inching behind the red mobility scooter as traffic thundered past in the other lanes.

The skip lorry driver said he could hardly believe what he was seeing as the vulnerable vehicle slowly changed lanes and was narrowly missed by another car.

A clip of the incident posted online quickly went viral, racking up 951,000 views and 57,000 likes.
