I live in Oregon, where it rains a lot! When I open the driver door, big drops of rain slide off the roof and land right into the driver seat. I’m tired of sitting on a wet seat! Is there any way to avoid this??

That’s common on today’s cars. Cars used to have “rain gutters” that prevented that, but they were discontinued long, long ago.

I have no good answer. Perhaps JC Whitney or someone sells a stick-on rain gutter.
