This has been shining in my eyes for the last 10 minutes whilst the bus driver takes a break.

    Which is strange since we have full size electronic billboards (in WA). I don’t believe they can have scrolling text/animations etcs, but they will change once or twice in the time you can see them at fwy speeds.
    They are super repulsive to me because they are more vibrant and attention demanding than traditional printed billboards (especially in low light conditions) and feel like late 90’s pop-up ads.

    Also i dont need a ~25m² screen changing in my peripheral vision when im already busy keeping to keep an eye on some dickhead in a lifted ford raptor or Yank Tank who is cutting through traffic.

      Yeah it’s ok on a static object by law, but not on a moving vehicle.

      And yes, even here in Armidale we have about four of them, and they don’t seem to have night dimming so can be a bit blinding.
