So I'm driving in traffic on my way to work this morning and I realize that the car is filthy enough on the outside that I won't feel bad if I turn on the wipers and get some of the dust off the windshield so I can see easier.
Hit the switch and the nozzles spray like they are supposed to. Now it gets interesting. The right wiper comes up, and then I see the left wiper blade fall off the arm and the arm slaps down on the windshield and makes a snap noise that scared the piss out of me. This also sends some black plastic piece (I'm guessing the connector on the blade) flying up in the air. Luckily this happens at a light and I have enough time to step out of the car looking like a fool and grab the wiper blade so it doesn't fly off the windshield and hit the person behind me later.
I just felt I would share the story so everyone can laugh at me. :D I needed new blades anyways so it doesn't bother me too much.
I wonder what this will do for my aerodynamics

Never heard of that happening to anyone before. Did it scratch the windsheild? Must have been interesting for someone else to watch all of this happening.
