A man driving down an Auckland cycle path has alarmed commuters, some of whom he allegedly almost hit while performing the illegal action.
Jessica Rose caught the incident, that took place on the Waterview cycle path, on camera around 8am this morning.
"This guy driving on the cycle path this morning!!! We told him to stop and he just ignored us!!!" Ms Rose wrote on Twitter where she posted the video.
According to Ms Rose the man had nearly hit a woman and her dog before driving along the cycle path.
"This was after he almost backed over a woman walking her dog. He was saying that 'they had a lot of students coming' and he tore off into the car park at Unitec-but avoided using the multiple access to roads along the way!"
Ms Rose says witnesses had tried to help the man by recommending a safe route to travel to Unitec, but the advice went unheeded.
"They really really made an effort to go off road and over kerbs in an inventive way!"
