Answers:
they would collide with each other if they covered the entire surface area of the glass,besides they only have to clean the area where the driver can safely see.
To piss us off.
so they don't clout each other when they are operating
Good question.I have no idea- and why do the rubbers on them never last long and are so fiddling and frustrating to change?!
only need to wash area in in front of eyes that covers roads.

I've often wondered this. Some cars do have wide wipers that cover almost the entire windshield, though. It'd be great to have one wiper rapidly go all the way across horizontally and cover the entire windshield, though.
Good question. I've always wondered why they don't make one that goes from one side of the windshield to the other.
If they were bigger then the windshield they would ride up onto the trim around the windshield and loose contact with the surface.
