Video footage of a man driving down 7 Avenue S.W. Monday around the lunch hour is now going viral.
The driver made a wrong turn down the roadway meant just for CTrains and buses, before driving over the switch for the tracks.

His Mercedes-Benz initially appears to have some trouble navigating the divide, but eventually makes it as a Calgary Transit SUV comes screaming up behind him.
The post was by Dan Duplessis, who goes by @cutieincowtown on Twitter.
Calgary Transit thanked Duplessis, telling him they eventually caught up with the motorist.
Some people suggested on social media it’s time to post more signs marking the transit-only corridor in the downtown core.
