Scaremongering. Windscreens havent failed like that since they stopped
being simple toughened glass donkeys years ago.

They do if you have a head-on and come into contact with it, or through
it, as was the case before seat belts and child safety seats became the law.


Cant decide whether youre being obtuse and argumentative just for the
sake of it or you really dont know the difference between toughened and
laminated glass.

I used to work in a haematology /blood bank dept in the 1970's.
I've seen the result of unbelted occupants in older cars that
have had a head-on or full-scale roll-over crash. Have you ?
