Need help cleaning oil off hood/side/windows

I was driving along the freeway and began to pass an 18 wheeler. Apparently the 18 wheeler was leaking oil and the oil dripped down to his tires which made it splatter all over my windshield, hood, and left side.

I was reading a page that said to clay bar it, but I was pretty sure you shouldn't until you wash your car which would get oil on my cloth + smear it all over my car. Some other people said to use dishwashing soap which I was pretty sure would be too abrasive. Another guy said he uses Soft Scrub which sounds like the craziest thing I've heard yet. He said he's used it a bunch of times. This was on a bimmer forum so who knows. The last thing I've heard was to use WD-40 and/or gasoline. These all sound kinda shady and I trust the advice on this forum so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
