Washer Fluid - UhOh?

Re: Washer Fluid - UhOh?
Not to argue... but if you don't leave home early, you may miss it!
It's sometimes below freezing at dawn.
I lived on the south side of L.A. from 1970's to 1993 and I had frost on my windows a couple times a year. The (old) washer fluid was always good enough to melt it. It was probably not below freezing for more than a couple hours... ( 4am to 6am? ) And then... just barely.
There's very few areas in the U.S. that never freeze when you think about it.

I am in North San Diego county, 9 miles inland. We have winter days below freezing. Last year, we had nighttime temperatures in the 20's.
I tried buying low temperature washer fluid in Big Bear (8,000 ft.) without success. Everyone there just adds rubbing alcohol.

I also like the law that you must have your headlights on if your wipers are moving. (it's for your own safety!) I can understand the under 1000 foot visibility rule, but just because you are using your wipers for ___ reason?
Guess my mothers family counts as part of the exidous out of California. They are moving from Lake Elsinore to Texas (Galveston area) this spring, although I don't think the wiper fluid laws are the main reason
