i cant believe the number of cars i witnessed today who didn't even bother to clean any aspect of their vehicles other than a small spot of their driver side windshield. I had to guess if a car was braking since the snow covered its entire break lights

i cant imagine just how hard it must be to clean the windows and lights off ones vehicle today. ive seen plent who didn't even bother with their headlights and taillights.

:bang:

It's one thing when it's ice which takes some scraping, but this morning it was a fine powder which was very easy to brush off.

By the time they get the lawn chair out of the basement or wherever, carry it up the steps, down the sidewalk and on the street to protect their parking spot, there's no energy left to clean off the car.

I didn't feel like cleaning off my car today. I took Hubby's truck. Less windows. When I got home, my car was magically cleared off.

True enough when you first started out, but if you were making multiple stops this morning, ten minutes after you stopped, your windshield was coated in ice.

It gives some indication of how little attention many people pay to something as significant as driving. They'll actually drive off with much of their normal view blocked. Pretty scary.
