As the UK experiences a cold snap with predicted snow and frost, a driving expert shared a simple trick on TikTok to defrost windshields using just one button: Turn up the heat and set the front windscreen fan to full blast. This method, promoted by Driving Test Success and Clear View Driving, allows warmth to radiate through the glass and melt the frost.
As the UK braces for a cold snap , with snow and frost already predicted by the Met Office across London and the rest of the country, commuters are now having to deal with frozen windshields. However, a driving expert has shared a simple trick that can be done from inside your vehicle using just one button.
While this might seem like common sense to some drivers, the tip was a revelation to many social media users, who expressed their surprise and gratitude. In the video, they explained: "Frozen wind screen? Put the temperature on high. Put the front windscreen fan on max. The ice will start to melt from the heat. Wipe away excess water and return the fan to normal."
Yet, Driving Test Success isn't the only one promoting this method; Clear View Driving also recommends using demisters before driving away. They advise: "Now don't use your windscreen wipers or washers as that won't help. Turn on your front and rear demister." Moreover, the AA has offered additional tips for motorists, suggesting they "turn on the warm air blower" and "heated mirrors" to efficiently and safely remove frost. The AA explains: "Start the engine and turn on the warm air blower on the windscreen. Switch on the rear windscreen heater and heated mirrors, if you have them. Turn on the air-con. It's not just for summer – it'll remove moisture from the air to stop the car from misting up.
