Why Aren’t Automobile Windows Made of Plastic?


Automobile windows aren’t made of plastic because glass is more resilient to the elements and will last longer with wear and tear.
Plexiglass is flammable and has a poor crash rating as an interior material in motor vehicles, including windows. When plastic breaks, it shatters into dangerous shards that can injure the vehicle occupants. Glass is a highly sustainable material and it has a better recycling potential than plastic.
