A disabled man from mainland China stunned road users in Hong Kong when he was seen riding a motorised tricycle along several major motorways in the city before being stopped by police.
The 29-year-old visitor, originally from Hebei province, was certified as disabled by mainland Chinese authorities.
In images and clips from dashboard cameras posted online on Tuesday afternoon, the man, who has a right leg disability, was seen riding his vehicle on the side of various motorways.
Internet users expressed amazement at him managing to travel such a distance without being stopped.

The man reached Sha Tin after riding about 30km from the border.
After travelling along busy roads, including Fanling Highway and Tolo Highway, he stopped for lunch at a shopping centre and recharged the vehicle’s battery. He was reportedly trying to get to Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai for sightseeing.
