12-year-old boy found cycling on motorway
A young boy took a wrong turn on the way to the Trafford Centre in Manchester and ended up on the M60.
The child, thought to be aged around 12, was stopped by police on Tuesday afternoon pedalling along near Barton Bridge, at junction 11 of the M60.
Police say the youngster managed to cycle up a slip road and ended up on the anticlockwise motorway carriageway. According to the Manchester Evening News he was taken home and “strongly advised” in front of his parents.
