Zusammenfassung:	This invention relates to a windshield wiper system and method which utilizes a flexible drive arm for withstanding bending loads applied to a wiper. The drive arm may be made of a pull-molded composite material having a relatively low modulus of elasticity and a relatively high elongation factor. The flexible arm twists in the presence of a bending load and undergoes rapidly progressing elastic buckling when the bending load exceeds a predetermined amount.
