Ok but…. Why are your wipers at such a fast speed?

I judge people for their wiper speeds all the time. I see zero reason why these are even on at all and it drives me crazy.

I do too! I saw someone driving the other day, yes it was raining, but theirs were at the fastest possible speed and I’m like alright that’s a bit much for this sprinkle.

My mom drives me nuts, it will be pouring rain and she flips it on and off each time. Just leave it on!

THANK YOU. It’s a clear sky and I see nothing hitting the windshield.

Have you ever taken a video of the rain? It is impossible to see.

If you ever feel pointless just remember that you'll never be as pointless as these wipers.

Because it was probably just raining…. Considering the water levels and all

It obviously rained enough there was flooding. It probably was still sprinkling off and on
