Pay your kids (or neighbors kids) to shovel it!

I think there is a solution. Get a John Deer Tractor with the snow plow attachment and turn it into a cow pooper scooper! Just make a run down the road before driving the MINI, being sure to deposit the poop at the end of your neighbor's drive... maybe he will take a hint and contain the cows!

They're back! The cows have returned to the pasture that our driveway goes through. Hopefully they'll develop different grazing patterns than last year's bunch - seems like they only pooped on the driveway.

I didn't go for the mudflaps last year, but it might be time now.

Actually, I thought that it sounded like you have a crappy neighbor?

Unless the neighbor is feeding them something fishy, cow poop is harmless -- ok, except for the neurotic complex it's giving you, of course.

You could always install a whole-Mini wiper blade to wipe it off as it clings desperately to your Mini.... Or maybe a cow-pooper scooper on the front of the Mini: that way you only have to do ONE run down the drive, instead of having to do a "clearance sweep" with another vehicle first!

I guess building an overpass (or udder pass) isn't feasible?
