A windshield, also known as a windscreen, is a component of a vehicle that is positioned in front of the driver and passenger seats to protect them from wind, dust, rain, and other debris while driving. Typically made of laminated safety glass, windshields are designed to be strong and durable to withstand the impact of small objects, such as rocks and gravel, without shattering.
Windshields may also have various features to enhance their functionality, such as heating elements to melt snow and ice, or built-in sensors and cameras for advanced driver assistance systems. In addition, some windshields are tinted to reduce glare and UV radiation, and may have a top tint or sunshade to further protect passengers from the sun’s rays.
Proper maintenance of a windshield is important for ensuring visibility and safety while driving. This includes regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris, repairing chips and cracks as soon as they appear, and replacing the windshield if it is severely damaged or obstructs the driver’s view.
