I was driving down the road the other day (as I'm apt to do), and the SUV in front of me proceeds to mist/clean his windshield. We were both driving about 45 mph and although I was about 4 or 5 car lengths back, the mist from his spray got all over my windshield!
How annoying!
I sometimes wonder how much people are aware of the impacts they have on others. I bet very little, if any. I like to think I'm aware (and considerate) of others while on the road, but it's always possible that I don't know what I don't know. :)
In any event, it did rain the next day (which was another annoyance) and thus my windshield was rinsed of the dried overspray. (The day called for 10% chance of precipitation all day until about 5pm, then it rose to 30%. At about 3:30, it proceeded to pour while I sat in a dentist chair. By the time I was done, the rain had also stopped, but I had to drive home among all the water from the road being kicked up by the tires of the other cars on the road. A third annoyance!)
Deep breaths.
I planned to wash the car this weekend anyway. Even a garaged car collects dust, dirt, fingerprints, road grunge... :)
