Judging by the way many Alaskans drive around here, wipers and lights don't seem to help much.

Until one hits something or someone and it's found that one could not see out the windshield, and the lawsuits start flying

I do kinda find it funny on who defines what as trolls, there are many people I have seen troll lately, and they are accusing other people of trolling (I wont mention names, no need to, you know who you are).

but back on topic... Has the OP tried rainx on the headlights? I am not sure how that would do, or if it will make plastic fog over or anything... but if it is okay to use on plastic, you may want to give it a shot.

Also try this: Cut a potato (uncooked) in half... and rub one of the halfs on your headlights... eat the other half or use on your windshield. This should prevent mud from sticking.

I'm pretty new to this, what is trolling? I have used Rain X with great success on windshields.

Troll (Internet)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation DNFTT redirect here. For the Wikimedia essay, see "What is a troll?".
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]
