Nobody wants to spend time defogging their cars in the morning, but now is a time when pesky condensation appears in vehicles a lot. However, according to the AA (Automobile Association), there's a simple method you can use to clear it quickly during the winter.

It's no secret that condensation can be problematic during months like January; however, you don't have to put up with it for long. If you use two simple buttons in your car, you can actually clear it pretty quickly, so it's not as hard to get rid of as you may have initially thought. You just need to know a simple hack.

Little you may know, it's not the only piece of driving advice to be shared lately. Earlier this month, drivers were also told removing a simple item from their cars can aid the problem too.

The topic recently came up on Reddit, when a driver asked: "Is there a standard way to defog car windows? I have been driving for almost a year now, and I have no idea how to properly defog my windows.

"I've only had to defog my windows probably less than five times so far, so I never worry about it. Tonight I was driving and, no matter what I did, it never cleared up. I just used my wipers constantly to see better.

"[During] a cold morning (when there is a lot of condensation) I just use a rag to wipe off the condensation. Is that a proper thing to do? Like, in terms of controls, what should be on? Any help is appreciated, thank you."

A few people commented to offer suggestions. One person replied, saying: "AC on. Fan max. Hit the button that blows to the window. When I go underground into a parkade and my car is wet, I usually crack open the window a little."

Another added: "Read your owner's manual. The last three cars I owned from two different manufacturers had tips to defog as fast as possible in the climate control section."

A third replied: "Avoid using your hands to wipe the inside windshield, because body grease from your hands will remain on it. It will work at first but, when it fogs up again after a while, it's not going anywhere no matter how many times you try to wipe it off again, and will impede vision. Use a clean rag, handkerchief, sleeves, whatever, but not your hand to wipe it clean."

Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: "There should be a button with a square on it and air lines (hard to explain). Press that and turn your AC up all the way. You can also just open a window and it'll slowly defog too."

However, when it comes to getting the job done in the quickest way possible, the AA has some simple advice. You just need to press two simple buttons.

According to the AA, the quickest way to get the job done is simple. On the website, it advises: "The best way to defog windows is to use a combination of hot and cold air.

"You should turn on your warm air blower and rear windscreen heater as well as your air-con. If possible, allow some outside air to come into the car as well.

"This should help you quickly turn a frosted over car back into something more drivable." It turns out, it really is that simple.

As well as this, it's important to remember there may be a few reasons why there is so much condensation in your car. Leaving wet items in the vehicle, or leaks, can also worsen the problem.

If you notice either of these issues, it's important to get them sorted. You can always ask a mechanic for further advice if you need it.
