As the winter comes into full play, many drivers will start to experience their cars freezing up in the mornings.
But instead of having to go outside in your dressing gown and slippers with a squeegee in hand, Danielle has shared a quick way you can de-ice your car in minutes.
The 27-second clip begins with the savvy woman holding up a clear plastic bag.
She asks viewers: “Is your car frozen but you’re also very lazy?”
Danielle flashes a glimpse of a steaming kettle as viewers try to figure out the clever trick.
“Hot, not boiling, water in a sandwich bag and seal it up,” she explains as she holds up the half-filled bag.
The driver adds how she just uses the water that’s left over from her morning coffee.
Danielle then drags the hot bag across her iced-up windscreen which causes the layer to effortlessly melt away.
“It literally takes under a minute to do the entire car,” she says.
As she steps into the driver’s seat, she shoots a clip from the inside of the vehicle and the windows have been left spotless.
“Leave everyone else on the street scraping their cars because you’re a material girl with important things to do,” she jokes.
The handy post racked up over 110 likes and drivers were quick to leave impressed comments.
One TikTok user wrote: “Mind. Officially. Blown.”
Another said: “de-icer just exists for no reason”.
A third joked: “I just take a bowl of warm water out and Chuck it on each window. Done lol”.
It comes after another car hack recently went viral on TikTok after claiming to show how to remove dents from your motor.
However, experts from the Swansway Motor Group urged drivers against using the popular trick as it is dangerous and could cost you thousands.
Drivers were also left shocked after realising they could warm their car in just seconds thanks to a genius hack.
Instead of splashing on a new air con, drivers can use the car’s heating and air conditioning system to increase the temperature in the fastest possible way.
And car owners went wild for a neat sun visor trick that de-ices windshields in just seconds – and it doesn’t cost a penny.
A TikToker user explained that if you let the heat from your vehicle’s heaters circulate around, nothing will happen – it will blow over your head and throughout the car.
“But if you get the visors down, put the heaters on full blast, it’ll get rid of it much quicker for you,” he added.
