What is the requirement for windshield wiper sprayers during a vehicle inspection?

During a vehicle inspection, windshield wiper sprayers must be functional to ensure that the driver has a clear field of vision in adverse weather conditions, such as rain or snow. This requirement is crucial for safe driving, as it allows the driver to clean the windshield efficiently, maintaining visibility when needed.

Functional sprayers that effectively distribute washer fluid evenly across the windshield contribute significantly to the overall safety of the vehicle on the road. If the sprayers are non-functional or if they are considered optional, the vehicle may not meet safety requirements for driving in various weather conditions, which could lead to dangerous situations on the road. Additionally, having only one speed for the sprayers does not align with the standard requirement; effective operation typically includes multiple speeds to adapt to different weather conditions and personal preference for visibility.
