A Nigerian NHS worker in Manchester, United Kingdom, Innocent Ayodele could lose his driving license after he was caught driving the wrong way on a motorway slip road while trying to avoid a traffic jam.

Ayodele was stopped after driving against the flow of traffic on an entry slip road to the M61.

He reportedly told police that he was trying to get home to his pregnant wife after finishing work.

However, a police officer who confronted him said the manoeuvre was dangerous, noting that Ayodele could have collided with another vehicle.
