According to the Pennsylvania Department of Motor Vehicles, the state performs vehicle inspections to ensure safe operation. It’s necessary to pass this assessment for your car, truck, or SUV to be considered road legal. Hilltop Auto Glass  believes you should consider getting a windshield replacement  before this inspection. Here’s more on the importance of a perfectly intact windshield.

Why You Need to Replace Your Windshield Before a Vehicle Inspection

If your windshield is cracked or chipped, your car may not pass the inspection and you’ll have wasted the time and possibly the fee for the assessment. You’ll have to leave, get the issue fixed, and return for a second inspection — that may  mean paying the fee twice and wasting valuable time in the process. If you go in with a perfect windshield, on the other hand, you’ll be ready for the inspection.

Safety Concerns of a Damaged Windshield

It could crack more  while you're driving, posing a safety threat to you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road. By maintaining a proper windshield, you’re minimizing the likelihood of this issue occurring. After all, it’s easier to see out of and navigate from behind an intact damage free windshield. Windshield replacement cost will vary, depending on the vehicle, and are absolutely worth the investment, as they’ll better your driving experience and improve your and other drivers safety on the road.
