So you're driving, the sun gets in your eyes, you flip the visor down and a four or five inch spider jumps onto your face because you startled it! BAM!They also hide on the outside of the car and climb up and in the window to escape the wind. It always seems to be the drivers side window, I couldn't even count how many times that's happened while I'm driving. I think they're hiding in the cracks around the doors. I'm not too paranoid of spiders but it is very distracting, I can imagine most people would freak out and cause an accident.</blockquote>
