Questions for the Honda enthusiasts:

--Does anyone else have this problem, and how did they get around it?

--Are there thinner windshield wipers available for 09 Hondas?

Even with this problem, I don't see myself buying anything other than a Honda Civic--so this is something I'm going to have to deal with. I'm just so VERY disappointed that Honda built the car this way.
Almost all Japanese cars are built like this, and a few European cars too.

Insurance wise it'd be your fault because you didn't give them enough space for roll back. You're suppose to give enough room where you can at LEAST see the bottom of their back tires.
