Laminated glass is ideal for the front windshield because it’s super strong. Two layers of glass are fused together by a layer of plastic. In the event of an accident, the windshield should stay intact and prevent the driver from exiting the vehicle. Laminated glass is used in vehicles for the purpose of safety. Laminated glass holds two pieces of glass together, with a thin layer of plastic between them. When laminated glass breaks, the main piece remains intact and the broken piece falls out. This prevents injuries to those inside or outside the vehicle from flying shards of glass.
