And it's incredibly stupid and more common than it should be. Takes 20 seconds to do the windows properly.

A girl in my city did that a few years ago and hit a pedestrian and then went to jail for it.

Worst 20 seconds she ever saved.

Yeah it's at least 5 minutes and I run the car while I'm scraping.

I'm so used to the car being warmed up (auto start) I forget how long it used to take when I did it the old fashioned way. A lot more elbow grease involved without the warm air circulating inside.

Sometimes the ice is so bad I have to run the car for 10 minutes so the ice scraper will remove the ice
