Maybe I'm different from most, but it's very rare that I ever use the "high" setting in any vehicle. I can't stand the wipers moving that fast and I can see just fine on slow. It has to be a cloudburst to need high speed. What I miss having is intermittent setting
I know!
I drove the old lady's car once last winter and it's incredible wiper speed freaked me out. With that much inertia involved they will end up beating themselves to death.

I did dare try high speed being afraid my head would explode.
