E-SCOOTERS are dividing opinion up and down the country, but everybody was saying the same thing about this woman on hers.
The video, uploaded to Instagram on the Inside Motors channel, shows the danger of riding an e-scooter and not paying attention.
It's currently legal to buy an e-scooter, but illegal to ride a private one on the public road.
The only way to legally ride one on the road is to hire one from a company like Uber via an app on your phone.
This video is shot using a smartphone in a van and shows a woman riding an e-scooter on a public road without a helmet.
It's not clear if the scooter is private or from a hire company, but she's carrying a decent bit of speed as the van moves up alongside her.
