Getting A "Star" That You Don't Want

posted by Francis Ho


I discovered a "star" crack on my car windscreen probably caused by the impact of a flying stone as my car was parked next to a busy road near my office. Ouch!

My children are more imaginative saying that a giant spider had descended to nest there! I can probably live with this 'spider' as it's on the passenger side of the car as I can imagine the replacement of the windscreen would be quite a bothersome and costly affair.

I trust that such stars or spiders do not take a liking to your car windscreens! And unfortunately if they do, I trust that you'll take it in a positively imaginative manner. Ah, well.

A long time ago there was a gas station I used to frequent which had a car wash. One day my wife and I were sitting in the car while it was being washed. The car had an antenna that was mounted along the driver side roof post. Well, as the big washing roller came up the hood of the car, it caught the end of the antenna, ripped if off the mounts and smashed it into the front windshield! The entire windshield shattered right in front of us.

Happily the safety film within the glass prevented us from being showered with glass (or getting wet), but it was sure a wild experience. I had to have the car towed.

Nowadays, some cracked windshield can be 'glued' back. But you must do it within a week.
