Wipers parked on the passenger side

I think it makes absolute sense for the wipers to park on the drivers side - it ensures the screen in front of you gets cleared first. Never thought of it as impeding my view in any way - I'm certainly not tall and my seat is in the lower position.

As already mentioned, the advantage of being cleared first is pretty minimal. Probably similar to the amount of distraction they cause :)

they are always parked on the drivers side whether lhd or rhd to ensure the better coverage on the drivers side

when you run your wipers you're see that the passenger side doesn't quite have the coverage of the drivers side since they are offset to the drivers side

added that the 2 wipers are closer together so ensuring maximum performance

"Coverage" would be the same wherever they park so that's a red herring.

Is this what you lot talk about when the cars are put away to sleep :sleepy:

Harsh but true. Although never used we worry about our wipers. Where should the front ones be parked and whether there should be one on the back.
