Windshield

The windshield, of an aircraft, automobile, or motorcycle, is the front window. Windshields are nowadays generally made of two sheets of curved glass with a plastic layer laminated between them for safety. Windshields protect the vehicle's occupants from flying debris[?] (such as dust, insects, and rocks), wind, and temperature extremes. In a number of districts, it is criminal to drive vehicles with tinted[?] windshields.
