The presenter at @know_about_cars said: "When driving in winter its very easy to fog up the windshield and affect driving vision.

"Many older drivers will put a rag in the car when you can't see clearly and wipe it with a rag. In fact not only is it not effective it also effect driving safety."

He then explained how the solution to the problem was very simple. He said: "We all have one in the car. The windshield automatic defogging function. Then the windshield will no longer fog up.

"We only need to be on the centre console to find this outer loop. Open it and at same time open fan shaped logo and then adjust to a moderate position.

The expert, from Australia, explained how you can use a number of buttons on your dashboard to beat condensation.

The instructor said: "It's best to put the air conditioning on because air conditioning acts like a booster.

"It's going to do the job a lot quicker.

"You can crank it up to two or three and it's going to clear it within literally 10, 15, 20 seconds."

An Aussie mum who is known on TikTok as ‘Emmuhjayne’ took to her social media page to how a button on the dash helped with tricky hill starts.
