Can a car be driven without a windscreen?

It's when you go flash someone to pass; pulling the wrong stalk by mistake and you get a squirt of water straight in your eye

No you fool! - man cannot travel that fast without the air being squeezed from his lungs. It's impossible.

Only if it's one of them modern dungers with fuel injection, ABS and all that crap.
Proper cars can be driven without the windscreen - or even the whole roof in some cases.

we do it all the time at work, once i drove a car to the painters with no doors no front guards and no winshield, i was sitting on a nail box and had no seat belt on.

A;aways, ALWAYS make sure the steering wheel is properly attached....

Meh. Pansy. A pair of 'ViceGrips' clamped on the steering stem is quite sufficient. Steering wheels are for homos.

I have seen rope attached to both wipers, then into the drivers and passengers windows, said driver and passenger pulling rope to and fro - wiped the windscreen a treat.

Drove a ute from just out of Darwin to Rockhampton no screen, all good until an idgit opens the door while doing 80mph darn near sucked us all out the door..
