night rain
hey everyone,
when im driving home at night, and its raining, i cant see after another
car has passed. i live out in the woods, but get on a route to get there, so
its a 50 mph speed limit, and some curvy roads. with all the rain theres a
big glare on my windshield, and for a second or too after the other car
passes, i cant see anything, which is scary. i slow down, but it doesnt help
much. Is it because my Tj's windshield doesnt have much slant, or something
else? how can i help this? rain-x, would fog lights help? thanks for any
input!

Re: night rain
Rain-x will help, BUT we just had a big discussion on it. You might want to
look at the archives through www.google.com and check it out. I would say
it was 51% against and 49% for! We all agreed that it helped but it had side
effects.

Make sure your wipers are new and your windsheld is kept squeeky clean
and free of dirt/bugs/etc. Fogs will help a bit but the one thing
that will help more is to slow down. Speed limits are just that and they
are based on dry sunny conditions, not rainy night.

Re: night rain
i realize this, and will go about ten under if i need to, but either way if
you cant see or focus on the white line its a scary thing, especially when i
have 20/20 vision, maybe i have bad night eyes or something? i would think
im too young for that though
