I have had and have numerous chips on my windshield with no spidering at all. I am not sure why, but there is not one line coming off of any chip. There are at...
It has to reach a critical mass to shatter. If you have a noticeable crack you may be able to extend the life of the windshield with professional repair, or...
There are two cracks radiating off a small chip. One goes down about two inches. A larger one goes towards the passenger side and is about 12'14" long. I have...

I went to Kragen's last night to see what they might have re: windshield repair kits. One repaired cracks up to 12" ... and on the contents it says you get 4...
my pleasure, just as there are window ding fixers there are also body ding fixers, I've used dent wizards ... you can find them on the net and as they are...
I do find one thing about windshield replacement rather interesting. They say you really need 24-48 hours for the glue to 'cure' before the windshield is safe....
Most winshield repair folks use a quick dry 1 hr adhesive; this isn't the maximum strength just that its safe enough to go home to let it cure to maximum. You...
I figure I'll have the work done at my office (hopefully afternoon) then take the car home, let it sit for a day or two under the carport (so out of the sun). ...

C always has the right of way, even if they are turning right as they might change their mind and go straight. And law or not, the first car to arrive...
Yes, I'm with you. I prefer to let people get out of my way so I don't have to worry about them. The thing that makes this scenario a bit tricky is that when...
If this scenario applied to me ... I'd call the road department and see what they can do to increase visibility at the intersection. A driver should never have...
