I must say I've been having fun after discovering that the head light washers spray tail-gaitors' windscreens!

Was on the motorway this morning and had this idiot right up my rear bumper (in one of those supercharged Jags) - hit the washer a few times and set his windscreen wipers off!

Yep, great way of unsticking them from your bumper. Particularly effective on B*W and M*rc cabrios I find

Has me in stitches every time I do it - guaranteed to either p1$$ them off or make them drop back. I think it's the confused look on their faces on a hot sunny day when they see that you haven't had to use your windscreen wipers but they have

Classic!

Don't you think they just might know what you're doing?

ChrisB

Any tips for aiming then? Just tilt them up I guess?

In the default position they seem to work fine - and its better the faster you are going as they drive right into the spray. If you try it at night, you'll see the water spray illuminate infront of their headlights.

I am a bit worried at times if the driver is a nutter and decided to step out at the traffic lights in which case I'll just put my wipers on and say 'just cleaning my windscreen mate'!

Word of warning - carry some water in the car as I was doing this to a lot of people on the motorway the other day and ended up running out of water!!!

i should think the use of anti lag would be more effective at gettng rid of them!

MATTeL

Adam I am shocked!

Are you seriously suggesting the use of anti-lag? You know that it is illegal to use on the roads!

It would be fun though!

Anti-lag? am I being dense here?

what are you on about?

Jolly,
If they are on about flooring it and leaving them,then the anti-lag is the bit fitted to the WRC's.Direct fuel injection to the turbo so you are always on full boost.

Dont know the tech behind it but it works something like that.

Good idea I think,I'll also bear the washers in mind for the tail-gaters.Can I move the washers to the back of my car and fill the bottle with brake fluid?

Anti-lag retards the ignition when you lift off the throttle causing the fuel to combust in the turbo keeping it spinning. An added by product being that it is still burning all the way through the exhaust and about 20' out the back, just nicely scorching any f#*kwit hitching a ride on your back bumper

Ah ha... excellent...

I usually take the oportunity to test me brakes... cos a little bunny ran out (honest)...

If you want to have fun, put on a flame kit (spark plug in the exhaust and wire it up to a coil) saw one of them on a cossy and it was kicking out 10 foot flames...

eagle

isuzu troopers have the same facility... all good fun...

Hunswon...
That is so funny i just pissed myself mate!!!!

Or you could do the Jame Bond thing, flick a switch and dump a load of oil on the road, they would soon back off then..

opps, I think I have been watching to many Bond movies..

been doing this for years.

I had fun with a fellow scoob driver on the M4 during the NetworkQ with this, he was not amused.
