Flying insects and vehicles

11 years ago

I can't find the post (sorry!), but someone in (north?) central FL recently commented (to make a point about global warming?) on the many bugs that collect on one's car. I realized that I this is not occurring on my car, here on the Pinellas peninsula, and figured I would have to drive inland for that pleasure. Then, in the June 6 Tampa Bay Times "Car talk" by Ray Magliozzi, I learned that as cars in the last two decades have become more aerodynamic to increase gas mileage, an additional result is "fewer squashed bugs and decreased sales of bug-and-tar remover". What d'ya think?
