The video, circulated on social media, shows the cyclist proceeding along the hard shoulder of the AP-7 southbound, a route where bicycle traffic is strictly prohibited by law. The incident occurred close to the city of Tarragona exit.
According to the images shared by the account @circuliperladreta, the individual was riding a red mountain bike, wearing a matching red waterproof jacket, and carrying a backpack and several bags. He was also wearing a cap.
Cycling is strictly forbidden on high-capacity roads like the AP-7 motorway due to the extreme danger posed by high-speed traffic.
The scene takes place on a three-lane stretch, where heavy goods vehicles and cars overtake him at high speed, right next to the guardrail. This action has generated surprise and significant concern regarding the obvious danger to both the cyclist and other road users.
