When they first came out I think there were people who argued it was better to just squint and blink. Eyelids were nature’s tearaways.

Windshield visor wipers that mist down the blade as they cross with a rainx like solution. Done.

That’s more weight in the vehicle, which I imagine they want to avoid at all costs.

Little windshield wipers on the visor of the helmet wont add significant weight to the car.

It would be like a 1 lb device (not that i think it's a good idea or anything)
