The present invention relates to a novel wiper system comprising a wiper vertically aligned to the height of a windshield and configured to move horizontally along a pair of tracks positioned along a top edge and a bottom edge of the windshield. The wiper and the tracks have a thin profile, so as not to obstruct the view of a driver and to not leave any blind spots. The wiper is driven by drive units that are configured to actuate the actuators of the wiper system. A motor provides electric power to the drive unit. The wiper's speed can be controlled using operating means positioned inside the vehicle and nozzles are positioned on the wiper for spraying washing fluid on the windshield. The wiper system can be retrofitted and improves vision while driving, minimizes debris on the windshield, and ensures the driver can clearly see through the windshield.
