To get snow and ice off the windshield of your car, you might be tempted to turn on your windshield wipers. You got the wipers, you got the washer fluid, seems like it would work, but it doesn't. In fact, if you use your windshield wipers to get ice off the windshield, you could ruin them. So you want to use an ice scraper to scrape the ice from the windshield of your car before starting the vehicle.
