A woman was spotted risking her life to scale a tall median barrier to cross a busy motorway when a footbridge was right next to her.
The clip, filmed by a stunned pedestrian at the bottom of the pedestrian bridge, showed the woman strutting onto the highway with a shopping bag on her arm.
The cameraperson turned away when it looked like a passing car was going to hit the daredevil pedestrian.

The woman then nimbly scaled the tall barrier on the central reservation.
The reckless crossing took place on the A7 Motorway in El Paraíso near Marbella, Spain, on Friday (13 Jun).
The clip was shared by the group ‘Marbella Complaint’ on Instagram, where it went viral with 50,000 views and dozens of comments, as reported by What’s The Jam.
A group spokesperson said, “Someone else with no appreciation for life.
“And there is a pedestrian bridge just 10 metres away.”

Numerous residents claimed the same woman is seen crossing the busy motorway the same way on a regular basis.
One local said, “That woman has been doing that for ages, and no one does anything.”

Jose added: “She always does it, it’s a danger to road safety. Perhaps the authorities should take action?”

“That woman also performs acrobatics on top of guardrails, even at level crossings when they’re closed. One day there’ll be a disaster,” remarked Emilio.
Sarah added, “She always does it. So dangerous and reckless.”

Alicia said, “They should stop her and give her a big fine; she’s going to cause an accident.”
