Why is auto glass so resistant to impact?

A modern windshield is a material commonly referred to as safety glass. This material is really two layers of glass sandwiching a layer of poly-vinyl plastic. The plastic creates a bendable and stretchable layer that is fused to the glass on either side of it. In an impact situation, the rigidity of the glass is enough to stop most breaks. If the glass shatters, instead of it spreading throughout the cabin, it still maintains its status as a solid layer between the exterior and the interior. The glass can break and shatter, but it stays in place as a single layer for all but the most severe impacts. In addition to this important feature of safety glass, it provides other small bonuses that make the modern vehicle possible. 

• Auto glass significantly muffles exterior sounds. It can specifically reduce high frequency sounds, making the cabin a much less distracting place.
• Auto glass helps keep the temperature of the cabin stable throughout the day by absorbing up to 97% of all ultraviolet radiation. 

What does windshield damage look like and when should it be repaired or replaced?

After an impact, whether light or heavy, inspecting your windshield can save lots of effort and money.  Professionals can spot many trouble areas before they can evolve into more significant breaks. This will save you money and time in the long run. Be sure to take any suspected damage to an expert to have it evaluated. Watch for these specific issues and try to deal with them before they lead to a blowout or shatter situation:

• Scratched windshields can occur from light impacts or constant weathering. These may seem unimportant, but are launching points for further damages. If water gets into a scratch overnight, the changing temperatures can cause a crack to form over time. Dealing with a scratch before it gets to that point can save money.
• Chipped auto glass often occurs after a small impact of significant strength. A pebble striking the window can dislodge part of the top layer of glass. This weakens the windshield and needs to be inspected.
• Cracked windshields have had significant impacts or been weathered to the point where they are prone to unnecessary breaks. These need to be taken to an auto glass shop immediately.
