You could barely see your hood, but you could see into the next care well enough to identify gender?
Just for the record: I am perfectly willing to turn on my windshield wipers when my vision is being obstructed. I am perfectly capable of making the determination that my vision is being obstructed. My car does not have intermittent wipers; just off, on, faster. If it is only a sprinkle I will play human intermittent wiper. If you feel I should turn them on just ask me and I will likely accommodate, but DO NOT REACH OVER AND TURN THEM ON FOR ME.
Now explain to me the dumbfucks who refuse to drive faster than 40mph at the first sign of a sprinkle. In normal rain, it is completely safe to drive normal freeway speeds (on a freeway), just leave a bit more room around you.
This is something my wife and I fight about periodically. I tend to use my wipers at much lower settings than she would like.
The thing is I find the wipers going by somewhat distracting, and up to a point find looking through the raindrops on the windshield easier than having the wipers distract my vision. In those cases I honestly believe I’m being safer by not having the wipers on.
My wife on the other hand is just the opposite and finds any rain on the windshield to be very distracting. I wonder if this might be a genuine physical difference between male and female brains - anybody have any ideas?
