A BONKERS driver was caught using string to move his windscreen wipers as he sped down the motorway in the pouring rain.

Footage shows the man pulling two white pieces of string attached to his wipers through the windows of his small blue car.

He appears to tug at the thin ropes when he wants to clear his windscreen, pulling one through the left window and another through the right.

The mechanism appears to work a treat, with the wipers moving swiftly through the downpour as the man tries to drive at speed.

Filming the clip from the passenger seat of a lorry, TikTok user Stephenkeeling9 wrote: “Someone stop the world I’m getting off”.

And other users were quick to comment.

One person wrote: “I’m crying so hard from laughing.”

Another posted: “I’M DYING.”

Someone else joked: “That’s how stable my life is at the moment.”

But despite the dangerous nature of the method, it seems it’s not uncommon.

One person said: “I did this hanging out a moving double decker bus on the motorway to get a school trip back home on time.”

A second wrote: “Exactly the same thing happened to me on New Year’s Eve on the millennium.”

And another said: “Literally me eight months ago! And before the Karens start – my motor for wipers gave up and breakdown wouldn’t cover me as it was the wipers.”
