Having condensation on the interior of the windshield isn’t just a nuisance, it’s dangerous. You can use these tips to clear the condensation so you can drive safely to your destination.
To start,
clean the interior of your windshield
. Dirt particles on your windshield attract moisture, and once they’ve grabbed ahold of the moisture, cleaning the interior of the windshield can be far more difficult.
In addition, you can also use your car’s front defroster to help eliminate the condensation. Set the temperature to warm the windshield and this should get rid of the condensation.
Since a dirty windshield is a cause for concern when you’re behind the wheel, don’t drive. If you do, you could risk an accident. With that said, other drivers may get behind the wheel with a dirty windshield and cause an accident. That’s when you should consider upping your coverage limits on your car insurance.
