MOTORISTS travelling the Clyde Tunnel claim they were held up after a man on an e-scooter took to the road to cross the river.
The video, which was posted anonymously on social media, shows a man in a black jacket and white hat riding down the steep bank of the road on the scooter.
Filming from the vehicle directly behind the rider, voices can be heard expressing their disappointment towards being held up by the scooter user as they can't overtake due to double solid white lines.
Only vehicles such as cars, vans and lorries are permitted to use the road going under the Clyde.
The tunnel is a main passage for road users that connects Glasgow's southside to the city's north-west end.
In the video, voices can be heard shouting and swearing at the being stuck behind the man.
However, towards the end of the video, the pair in the vehicle see the funny side to the situation as they say: "Oh, I want to see the scooter struggle to go up the climb," before bursting into hysterical laughter.
The video ends before the driver and scooter rider reach the end of the tunnel.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
