With winter fast approaching, we are all starting to see a lot more rain. This can make driving conditions awful and without your car being “winter ready” can make for dangerous driving situations.
When it comes to preparing for the winter, you need to not only consider items such as tyres and anti-freeze but also your wiper blades. Wiper blades can perish quickly is intense heat and intense cold conditions but also just naturally over time or they may can get damaged in car washes. To replace a set of wiper blades is usually between £20 – £40 depending on the size and make required. This is a small price to pay to stay safe on the roads. Driving in the rain with wipers that are not sufficient can be extremely scary and can make it virtually impossible to have enough vision you need to drive safely. Many garages will fit the wiper blades for free or charge a small fee of a few pounds to do so.
