Brought a vehicle from Alaska to Texas for daughter. Got all the Alaska Highway warnings here. Replied I had it all covered... AWD Forester with new tires. Many paint chips an Windshield Already Cracked.
We got hit once and it was bad. Right at the end of a stretch of new chipcoat.. wonder why they call it that.. someone kicked a big chunk right at me behind the wheel. Thought it was coming through but only pulverized a .38 caliber diameter out of the top layer of the glass. Not cracked, but a crator, gone. In the wiper path. Didn't send cracks or affect wiper.
My AK Highway warning .. if a pothole has water in it.. vehicles will squirt STONES out with the water.
