Two men have received backlash online after being filmed standing up in the back of a car while travelling on the notorious A-7 highway.
Footage shared on Instagram shows a man sitting out of the back of a Fiat 500 with its sun roof down, just as the vehicle is turning onto the deadly highway in Marbella.
The car, which has its hazard lights flashing, then turns onto the A-7 and continues driving as normal, while the man in the blue shirt begins dancing and waving his arms, all while standing.

He is then briefly joined by a second man, who also appears to stand up and dances for a few seconds before the clip ends.
The A-7 has seen multiple fatalities this year after a spate of serious collisions.
It is typically more dangerous during the summer due to the higher volume of traffic and tourists who are not accustomed to the highway.
Locals commenting on the clip online branded the men ‘clowns’, accusing them of risking a serious accident.
‘Trashy, low cost tourism,’ one wrote in Spanish, while another added: ‘Where is the Guardia Civil when you need them?!’
In Spain, anyone caught not wearing a seatbelt can be fined up to €200.
There are also sanctions for ‘creating serious risks on the road’, with the most severe cases resulting in jail time.
