Answer: it strikes the the car in the direction of relative velocity of rain with respect to car.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the rain is falling vertically downwards, it strikes the the car in the direction of relative velocity of rain with respect to car. This is the reason why the front windscreen get wet and the back screen remains dry.
