This is what we're facing more and more every day as motorists.

It's easy to start raging and frothing at the mouth about this sort of thing, but we need to take a deeper look at the mentality and awareness of the people doing it. There are endless social media videos of ebike riders menacing town centre streets, but almost always the bigger threat is from the passive users who don't see what they are doing as dangerous.

We've all been walking on pavements when an e-scooter ride has whizzed silently past and we've probably all been quick to judge. Take the time to look at the person riding though and in many cases it will be a smartly dressed professional with no safety gear and little awareness of the danger they are to themselves and pedestrians.

Solutions are easy to talk about but hard to implement. Is banning this kind of transport the answer? Stricter laws? Maybe much more clearly defined laws would be a start.

As usual, let us know what you think in the comments!

We aren't singling out BMW here, as just about every new car available has some sort of screen, but for any company professing to be safety conscious, how can it be justified to say they are committed to reducing road incidents and accidents and at the same time putting a 20 inch monitor straight in the drivers eyeline and even obscuring part of the windscreen.
