I know its a lot of trouble but it puts the responsibility off of you.

First off, you're going to have a hard enough time prooving that it was the windshield that caused you to have an accident. Sounds more like careless driving to me. Good luck.

My insurance company sent someone out to replace it, which was cool. Until I noticed a milkly, chalky substance on the inside and outside of the glass. When the sun hits the windshield just right, it causes so much glare that it's hard to see. I used everything I could think of to remove it, to no avail. I called the glass company three times to replace it again, but they keep bagging on the appointment dates.

This morning I'm heading to work down my usual route in my neighborhood where's there's some construction going on. Somebody moved a portable street sign into the lane, which I couldn't see because of the glare. I hit it at 30 mph and watched as a 4x4 post and sign flipped up over the truck and landed on my roof. Bumper cover and grill are toast. Leading edge of the hood is scratched, but may be fixed by buffing. But there's a baseball sized dent in my roof. All this on an '04 with 10k miles on it and perfect paint. Talk about a bad way to start your day!

If it had, I would have not driven it until it was replaced. It's not like it had happened every morning for a month and I ignored it.
