As long as the wiper clears the screen so the driver can see in the wet it will pass no problems

they will not fail MOT if they come to rest on the passenger side of the window & clear a certain % of the window as monsuier stocker was saying

if they rest in the middle then they are considered to be obstructing the view of the driver & therefore an MOT failure

anyhow they look shite when they rest on the middle of the window
