There are a few times when it DOESN'T make sense to go to a car wash. Like when it's raining . . . when you're late for work . . . or when you're the driver of a criminal's getaway car. If you can manage to make it through the day without going through a car wash when you’re trying to get away from the scene of a crime… you’re doing OK.
