How far should the rear wiper sweep?

This may sound like a silly question, but how far should the rear wiper sweep? Mine only sweeps about 120deg. Should is go all the way across?

TIA

That sounds about right. It doesn't go all the way across. Stock XJ rear wiper size is 13", but my 2000 had a 14" wiper on it when I first got it and covered a little bigger area.
 
Thanks guys. I was assuming mine wasn't working right. It seems odd that it doesn't make the full sweep though. My wife's WJ does. Between the tire on the back and the ~120deg sweep I'm pretty blind back there when it's snowing.
 
As long as mine sweeps the corners where the dust bunnies collect I am happy. I believe mine is a little less than 120 degrees.
