What can I add to this story?   How about, glad I bought the heavy duty wipers.  Or,  would you mind jumpin off hone, your right in my line of vision. (sorry, I just couldn't resist).

With the temperature hovering in the low 30s, Christopher Michael Carroll drove 35 miles from Manteca to nearby Pleasanton on Saturday with his wife clinging to the hood, prompting 911 calls from at least two alarmed witnesses, police said.

Carroll got into the family’s minivan around 12:30 a.m. Saturday after he and his wife had an argument at their Manteca home, said police spokesman Rex Osborn.

“She kind of goes with the van to try to stop him, gets up on the hood and is hanging on to the wiper blade,” he said. “She obviously didn’t think he would keep driving.”

One witness followed Carroll most of the way and told police his speed reached 100 mph.

Eventually, Carroll slowed down the vehicle and his wife “was able to roll off,” Osborn said. The driver following the vehicle took the woman to a nearby hospital, where she was treated for hypothermia.
