A cyclist made a dangerous error on Saturday that could have cost them their life. The person rode onto the E20 motorway near Vejen in southern Denmark. Police received multiple reports about the cyclist traveling on the high-speed road. A quick-thinking citizen helped guide the rider away from the dangerous situation. Motorways in Denmark are strictly prohibited for cyclists due to safety concerns. These roads have speed limits of 110-130 km/h and pose extreme risks to bicycle riders. Ole Aamann, watch manager for South and Southern Jutland Police, praised the citizen's actions. He said in a statement that it was wonderful to have an alert citizen who could help the cyclist leave the road. The E20 motorway connects major Danish cities including Esbjerg and Copenhagen. This incident highlights the importance of knowing proper cycling routes and traffic rules. Riding on motorways endangers both cyclists and motorists who cannot safely avoid unexpected obstacles at high speeds.
