Wiper fluid ... it burns it burns!!

Is it my imagination or is there a trend in cars trying to spit on one another?

Actually, I know there are clear cases of "intentional incorrect windshield wiper use." I'm just curious if I'm alone in the observation.

I remember kids in the 70's with wiper nozzles tweaked to hit the car behind them.

My nephew, not that long ago, had a dedicated washer pump and resevoir mounted in the back of his pick-up to hose down tail-gaters and high beam misusers.

I tried that in my Miata recently (nozzles aimed over me and towards cars behind me); kinda backfired because I managed to wash my hair and almost blind myself at the same time.

In a similar method, I almost died on a country highway around here. On my long commute home, I thought I'd take off my shirt and get some sun. There were no cars around, so I started to pull the knit shirt off over my head. Just as my arms were fully extended (duh) the 60 mph wind caught the shirt pulling my arms back. Picture that; I'm dirving 60 mph down the highway with a shirt still over my face and my arms pulled back over my head.

I got it together, slowed down ang pulled my shirt off right. Glad I didn't try that on the interstate; my arms would still be out there somewhere.

Hey Joe Thats funny only cos you were OK and lived to tell the tale. It would not have been funny otherwise.

BTW: I was only joking with my original post. I did no such thing. I'm really not that stupid ... most of the time.
