The only reason I wash the cars is because they get covered with fly spats. No shortage of bugs in eastern new Mexico and Texas west of dallas.
Also windshield angles are sloped more now, on the leaf at 60mph they usually bounce off but still pile up on the front of the car. On my 1984 suburban they explode theit guts on the windshield at 60mph.
They ran the study from 1997 to 2017. But was it even scientific?
Did they use the same cars, same types of head lights, did the speed limit change, did they have any kind of bug count standardization, are traffic levels the same?
There's a lot of ways to screw up something as seeming as simple as counting smashed bugs.
