What is assessed regarding the windshield during inspection?

During an inspection, the primary focus regarding the windshield is to assess cracks or obstructions that affect driver visibility. This is crucial as the windshield plays a vital role in the driver's field of view, and any impairments such as cracks or anything obstructing the glass could significantly hinder safe driving. Ensuring that the windshield is clear and free of defects is essential for maintaining safety on the road.

While factors like tin levels might be considered for other windows, the law specifically emphasizes clarity for the windshield, as it directly impacts the driver's ability to see the road and other important surroundings. Aesthetic aspects or the age of the windshield do not influence its functionality in the context of safety inspections.
