Broken Windshield

In all my years of driving I have never broken a windshield. Weirdest thing.

never drive an 80's jeep... my 86 cherokee would get a chip every time a rock hit it.... good thing it sat a lil higher than most cars.... otherwise i'd've (its a word dammit!) been fixing chips every other week.

I think in one summer I had 3 chips and 1 replacement windshield.

Consider yourself very luck. During the winters, the amount of sand that goes down has some pebbles in it and that does it to the windshield. Small nicks seem to be repairable but if hit hard enough...cracks sure can spread and if it is in the viewing area or over a certain size, car may not pass yearly inspection. Glass companies love it.
