how strong are windscreens if they have a crack in and are they safe to drive
I've managed to crack mine today, it's a few inches in from the bottom of the screen and is a centre point with about 5-6 cracks spreading out the longest being about 6inches.
I've called auto glass through my insurance and they can't replace it until the 9th, which not major as I can go most the week without using my car but on Sunday I have to drive about an 80mile round trip on the motorway, would the screen be ok to do this? the chap at auto glass said it would be fine as its laminated , I have put some strong clear tape on the inside of the crack.
but I thought I'd ask you guys
