So was that a Cop who pulled up beside him at the end?

Apparently the display didn't tell the rider it's life-threatening to overtake vehicles when there are on-coming vehicles!

I think it's such a techy gimmick I could easily miss seeing the car emerging from the right street while I was interpreting the displayed info.
Might have a place on the racetrack with the wonderful gear change info.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Be interested to see how the Traffic guys see it. Surely it obscures the riders vision to some degree and I know that's a No No here in the west.
