well, for starters we were traveling in the extreme left lane of the highway, no one to the left of us. Secondly, there was a barrier wall between Northbound and Southbound. Thirdly, I never saw anything coming at us or heard anything coming at us. Fourth, I looked throughout the car (the window exploded inwards) and found NOTHING that could have caused it.

Last, but not least, this was spontaneous. I couldn't attibute this to someone shooting bbs or someone driving by and knocking something into us or anyone throwing something at us.

Plus, I'm finding a lot more stories about this type of thing on the internet (lots of cars with similar spontaneous explosions). I mean, it's not like the window broke--- it completely shattered into a million pieces. It was startling and unbelievable.

That's what safety glass is supposed to do when it breaks. If nothing else your comprehensive insurance should cover it.
