Dunno, but could have used one this morning.... A bit foggy down this way. Or that could just be the beans I had for tea yesterday

More important: why don't specs have wipers? Would be very handy
when riding in fog. Wiping the lenses with a glove doesn't work too
well.

Thats what visors are for mate

I used to use something called RainX on my visor.. made water run off the visor rather than sticking to it

Because people would forget to turn them off and it's annoying enough having car driver's do it, both back and front.

I find that if you choose the correct line while riding, you are more visible to other drivers/riders (saw an article in the media about it as well)!
Anyway,
I'm off to see how SAFFA drivers react to bikes for 3 weeks

That would be drivers that actually bother to look.
