The splashing on the windscreen was during parking.  50km/h results in no
detectable over splash to the windscreen.

Can I query? Are you sure this is true while moving above 30-40 mph? Or were
you standing still while you tested this? Just my curiosity because I don't
have these but am wondering if the same thing happens to those headlight
washers that happens with windscreen washers while standing still vs moving
at speed?
