Nonetheless, it is vital that drivers and passengers use their seatbelts at all times to help keep themselves from being ejected from a car in a crash. Passenger-side airbags rely on windshields to function properly. The windshield needs to stand up against the force of the airbag, and remain in place. Proper glass installation is imperative for this to happen. Auto glass must be installed properly to help the passenger compartment resist crushing in rollover accidents.
Auto glass is supposed to meet federal safety standards.
The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards describe the required performance of windshields in these kinds of accidents. All Star Glass installation procedures are devised to allow the glass to perform these vital functions. Repair or replace glass that has cracks which interfere with your vision. Some windshield cracks can be fixed. Ask your All Star Glass store for details.
