Put a glass of salt in your car. This is a vital hack every driver should know. Cop told me about this

Instructions:

1. Fill the container about halfway with salt.
2. Place it in a secure, flat spot in your car—under a seat, in a cup holder, or in the trunk.
3. Leave it uncovered. The salt will passively absorb excess moisture in the air.

Change or stir the salt every 2–4 weeks, or sooner if it becomes clumpy or wet.

🚫 What Not to Do

• Don’t use iodized salt near metal parts, as it can be mildly corrosive over time.
• Don’t overfill the container—it could spill if you hit a bump.
• Avoid placing it somewhere it could tip easily.

🛑 Bonus: A Cop’s Perspective

The officer who shared this tip said they’ve seen countless accidents that started with something small — like poor visibility from fogged-up windows. This super simple hack helps prevent that and adds a layer of safety, especially in colder months.

✨ Final Thoughts

You don’t need to be a mechanic to take good care of your car. Sometimes, it’s the smallest hacks that make the biggest difference. Placing a glass of salt in your car takes less than a minute but can help keep your windows clear, your interior dry, and your car smelling fresh.

Try it this week — your windshield (and nose) will thank you. 👃🧂🚘
