The law around windscreen obstructions

No, stuff is in the way, like the steering wheel, dial binnacle and so on. Anyways, you look right and down then you are staring into the pillar and can't see the road. Put it in the middle and you can still clearly see the road within your vision while looking at it. Right and low is just a terrible place.
FWIW though I can't stand anything in the window at all and wouldn't have one.
 
Always put mine in the middle of the windscreen as low as possible, charger cable isn't long enough to go down near the pillar to the right :p
I've had passengers tweak things on the satnav whilst I'm driving a few times, never found it obstructed the view :/

You and shoes both have E36's so we'll go with that. I had an E36 and having it in the bottom right was never an issue, I don't 'stare' at a Sat Nav when I'm driving, I only glance, not sure about everyone else...
 
I find it difficult to put the Satnav anywhere, because my brakes are quite powerful it often comes off the screen and either hits a passenger or goes into the back seat.

You're either:

1) A woman.
2) Slightly special.
3) Have some sort of horrific neck injury.

Or I suppose you might be American*.

No, it's just an horrendous place to have the satnav compared to low-centre of the windscreen. If you genuinely think that people put the satnav there so that other people can see the screen (!!!) then may I suggest that it is fact you who is the tetraplegic oestrogen ridden yank.

I put mine in the lower right corner.

I await your judgement :p
 
Thus inferring that people put it there for others to see it.

Irrespective, if your are annoyed because you can see someone else's satnav then you have much deeper problems than I first suspected.

Stick it wherever you want it nath (oo-er missus), as long as I am not subjected to it from afar, all will be well with the world ;)

Sounds like a trip in your car is enough to get whiplash. You need to brake more gently, even F1 cars can stop smoothly there is no reasn yours can't, don't blame the brakes, it's your right foot that's doing the braking.

That and get better suction arm for the satnav.
