Cracked Windshields

Post by parrot » November 9, 2022, 5:12 pm

A passing truck dropped a sizeable chuck of something as I was nearing in another lane. Lucky for me, nothing hit my truck.......but it made me wonder why I've raaaarely seen a cracked windshield in Udon. Back in Texas, cracked windshields are a dime a dozen despite strict laws that require loads to be covered and secured. Much higher speeds in Texas might be one reason. Yet, you'd think such things would happen more frequently here. Just wonderin'

perhaps it is because you can get a windshield fixed or replaced at a number of places in Udon? That said, I've seen cracked windshields although not many.

Automobiles in the USA mostly have laminated windshields.

Cars in Thailand mostly have tempered or zone-toughened windshields.
