Channel 11's sister station WSB-TV in Atlanta captured video of the unusual scene.
The man calls himself the Long Rider and said he travels across the country.
He said his cause is to feed children, but he did not mention a specific charity or organization.
WSB-TV was there when an officer pulled the man over about 3 p.m. The officer showed him a better way to get downtown.
The man said he is trying to get to Indiana by June for his sister's birthday.
