Do not depend on luck. f YÂ¥et, a great many drivers do this very thing during a blinding snowstorm. . It ‘doesn‘t take very long for snow to interfeéere with the efficiency of the ordinary windshield wiper and also to cover . the side windows of the car. Winter is here and snowstorms are upon us, Be ‘sure that your windshield wiper is in good condition and that the wiper functions properly. Sometimes the rubber becomes worn and a new wiper is necessary. A small cost, but it can save you considerable anâ€" noyance and incorivenience, It is also a good safety measure to see that this equipment is in order. | Imagine driving your car with all the windows covered with heavy canvas!
