Awesome. Although I expect nothing to come of it.
I didn't even know you could get a ticket for that (but should have).
Windshield on my CTD has been cracked for at least 9-10 months. I guess I only drive it a few times / week, but to your point, you can easily go through a windshield/year in this state, and at one point I did.
And I claimed them all. And got dropped by my insurance. (Whoops!)

So much for those "free" windshields. So, I pay cash now, but with winter around the corner I figured I'd wait until NEXT summer. Whoops again.
