Your vehicle's windscreen plays a crucial role in ensuring your safety and the safety of others on the road. Windscreen damage, like a crack or chip, may seem like a minor issue, but it can seriously compromise the structure of your vehicle in an accident.
Let's explore why it's essential to replace a cracked or chipped windscreen and why Precision Windscreens are the trusted windscreen repair and windscreen replacement experts in Paeroa, Waihi, Whangamata and beyond.
Safety First!
First up- the safety of having your windscreen in good condition while driving.
Your windscreen is a vital component of your vehicle's structural integrity. In an accident, it provides support to the vehicle's roof and prevents it from collapsing. A chipped or cracked windscreen is far more likely to break upon impact, putting you and your passengers at greater risk.
Most obviously- having a chipped or cracked windscreen is a bit of an eye sore! And can impair your vision while driving. Even a small crack or chip can distort your view of the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians. To ensure your safety and that of others on the road, it's essential to address windscreen damage promptly.
Pass your WOF!
There are certain rules and regulations around driving with a chipped or cracked windscreen, as well as, the size and length of chips and cracks that can be repaired.
Take a look at the diagram below from the NZTA website noting the types and maximum sizes that can be repaired-

Prevention!
Cracks and chips in your windscreen may seem minor at first, but they can spread fast! Temperature changes, vibrations, and road conditions can cause small chips to spread into larger cracks.
By choosing Precision Windscreens for repairs and replacements, you can easily have your windscreen repaired or replaced at home or at your workplace.
