Avoid the perils of ‘peephole driving’ with steel protection from carport.com
Your morning routine is probably no different than anyone else. After reinvigorating your body and mind with a hot cup of coffee, you trudge outside to wage war against the elements. Armed with nothing more than a bathrobe and ice scraper, you begin chiseling away at the thick coat of glazed ice that encases your windshield. If you have a few minutes to spare before your morning commute, you might even start your car and let it idle in hopes that defrost will do the job for you. Of course, there’s simply never enough time in the mornings to extract every shard of ice from your car’s windshield. Some more brazen souls will remove just enough ice and snow to leave a tiny window of bare glass to see through as they navigate to work. Peering through this narrow viewpoint while failing to clear the remaining snow from your windshield is known as ‘peep hole driving’ and it’s extremely dangerous.
Peeping through an ice-free hole window while driving to save time is completely unnecessary and can inevitably cause an accident or much worse. The practice of driving with an obstructed view is even citation worthy in some states as it demonstrates extreme negligence on the behalf of the driver. By focusing your vantage point on a just a slither of your windshield and by greater extension, the road, you are ignore crucial blind spots and the ability to scan ahead for potential traffic snarls. But what if there was a simpler solution to obfuscated driving that doesn’t even require you to scrape your windshield every morning in brutal temperatures? You wouldn’t even have to leave the warm comfort of your home before departing for your commute. Carport.com has you covered, so you can abandon your renegade days as a peephole driver.
