Boston's public transportation system safely delivers millions of commuters to and from their destinations every day, but the MBTA has released footage of a woman who didn't have such a pleasant trip last week.

According to the local CBS affiliate, a surveillance camera caught a woman trying to drive her Rascal scooter up an escalator, and as most would predict, the decision didn't go as planned: the unidentified woman flips the scooter backwards, spilling out of it, and flips multiple times herself while passersby rush to help. 

What's more striking about the scene? The supposedly handicapped woman stands up, helps right her ride, and proceeds to walk up the escalator.
