Interesting Invention # 22- The windscreen wiper
Mary Anderson, from Alabama in the Southern United States, invented the swinging arm windscreen wiper.
(She patented her invention in 1905, and it became standard equipment by 1913. There was no electric motor and so the driver had to use one hand to move the lever, which nowadays would probably be illegal.)
