08/29/2002 Entry: "It's the little things that almost get you killed`"

I'm driving to work yesterday in the rain. First big storm with the Insight. The storm picks up and I go to make the wipers on faster, so I flip the lever, and the wipers go off ! So there's a nice little WTF moment while I'm pretty much driving blind until I figure out the speed for the wipers is opposite what it was in the Saturn: Up now equals 'off', Down equals 'high speed'. It's the little things that almost get you killed. I'd have figured something like that would have been standardized.
