You may have meant to let your car idle for a few minutes before leaving which would have given your windshield plenty of time to defrost but now you're running late and must scrape the frost off your windshield. Avoid this by spraying your windshield with a solution of vinegar and water before going to bed.

Educational weblog InfoBarrel points out that even if you forget to spray your windshield the night before that the vinegar spray will begin to dissolve frost upon contact so that your defrost can quickly get you rolling. I have a dog I must take out before bedtime so it's easy for me to also bring the spray bottle and give the windshield a blast before bringing the dog back in. Remember to never pour boiling water on your windshield as the thermal shock from the change in temperatures might result in cracks. Photo by ellenm1
