Check windscreen and windows

  • Any cracks in a laminated windscreen penetrate more than one layer of glass or are more than 150 mm long;
  • Any glazing used in any motor vehicle is not safety glass (except a caravan) and where ADR 8 applies, the glass does not display an identification mark or symbol;
  • Glazing is loose in its frame or cracked to the extent that sharp edges are exposed;
  • Glazing, other than the windscreen, that is necessary for the driver to see the road is discoloured, obscured, badly scratched, sandblasted or fractured to the extent that it interferes with the driver’s view;
  • Items that obscure the driver’s view are placed in Area A or the corresponding area on the other side of the windscreen.
