Wife and I were driving down route 80 in NJ last year and a bird **** on my windshiedl! I had the top up thank god so I used the window washer...then again because some was still there. All of a sudden this asswipe cuts me off and emptys his washer tank in front of me and some of it does get all over my vette! I realized then the vettes washer must soak the person behing you pretty pretty pretty good! I just fell back as he was doing that and refused to give him the satifaction of seeing me put my wipers on!

I'd be surprised if our wiper fluid hits other cars, since the fluid comes through a nozzle on the windshield wiper, rather than a separate nozzle that has to squirt some distance before hitting the windshield.
I have never used the wiper fluid sprayer on my Vette. If my windshield needs to be cleaned, it gets washed by hand inside and out, using two different types of cleaning agents.
I can not stand when someone sprays their windshield in front of me on the road. It always seems top happen right after you have spent hours detailing the surface.

Just like a bird taking a dump on your car after you wash it
I washed my car during lunch and it rarely fails. The driver in front of me or a few cars ahead has to wash their windsheild. This of course is aggrivated by the top being down.
Anyone else annoyed by this?

That's why I always keep an extra bar of soap in the car when the top is down.
I'd go for washer fluid any day compared to what happened to me yesterday. I was going to the post office to mail some letters, when I made a left turn and as I was accelerating I saw a 1500 ft wet spill of something on the road. I ran through it for about 300 ft before I could change lanes then the smell hit!!!! It was fresh s__t, I hope it was at least animal but the whole left side of my car was covered with it. Thank god for multiple coats of wax, it sprayed right off but there's still a little "gamey" smell left.............

I don't remember this ever happening to me ... maybe I don't follow close enough to the car in front of me.
You don't have to be behind them. One day on a two lane road with traffic going 20 or so a lady in a new Lexus was passing by me and decided to clean her windshield. It about halfway startled me as I thought some kid gave me a shot from a waterhose (almost) until I looked to my left and saw her windshield washer on steriods blasting across my hood and glass. Of course this had to happen after I'd spent the last 3 hours detailing it and had not been gone 10 minutes yet. Like they said above, could be alot worse.

Happens all the time to me. That's why I like to hang back. On the other hand, it's a good way to get rid of tailgaters..................
Nope, I see people do that but I stay far enough back that it does not bother me. I do not drive close to anyone if I can help it, keeps the chips in the paint down.
