However, are we aware of the catastrophic consequences if an accident were to occur?<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-7\">In this article, we\u2019ll talk in terms of road safety and the risks of driving with broken windows. We will also briefly describe the different types of glass and give you the keys to <a href=\"..\/..\/es\/servicios\/reparar-luna-coche\"><strong>glass repair<\/strong><\/a> at Ralarsa.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ai-optimize-8\">What do we mean by active safety?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\">In the road safety sector, there is active safety and passive safety. It is important to understand the difference between them in order to know the dangers of driving with broken car glass and to avoid any possible accidents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\">First, let\u2019s explain what active safety means in a vehicle. It includes those elements that allow us to control our car, with the aim of driving as effectively as possible and avoiding leaving the road or colliding with other road users.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\">In short, it is about preventing a possible accident while driving. Some of the vehicle features in this group are: the braking system, the steering system, the tires, or stability control.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ai-optimize-11\">What is your car&#8217;s passive safety?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\">Passive safety, on the other hand, is related to elements designed to minimize harm when an accident cannot be avoided, such as serious injury or even death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-12\">The most important components in this group are the seat belt, airbags, head restraints, and windows. We will now focus on the latter:<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-13\">Windows: an essential element in your vehicle<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-13\">When manufacturing a vehicle\u2019s windows, manufacturers can choose different materials. Below, we explain some of them, highlighting their importance in road safety.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-14\">Tempered glass: perfect in case of impact<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-14\">In this type, the glass is subjected to high temperatures so it solidifies correctly. If it breaks, it does so into rounded pieces instead of sharp shards, which would be harmful to occupants.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-15\">Laminated glass: three in one for greater precision<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-15\">This type of glass is made by joining two sheets of glass with an intermediate film of PVB, EVA, and ultraviolet light resins. This technique provides greater safety because, in the event of an impact, the fragments remain attached to the film.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-16\">Tinted glass: extra privacy<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-16\">Tinted glass is manufactured with a dark tone, which helps better absorb the sun\u2019s rays and reduce heat inside the car. It also prevents glare from vehicles behind and offers greater privacy inside the cabin.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ai-optimize-17\">Glass repair can save your life<\/h2>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-17\">Most cars have a laminated-glass windshield. This offers greater safety, as it acts as a protector in the event of a head-on collision with another vehicle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-18\">At Ralarsa, our automotive glass workshop, we recommend repairing your windshield as soon as possible if it is damaged. How? We offer two options: you can come to our workshop, or if you prefer, we will personally collect it from your home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-19\">Next, we clean it, check the condition of your windshield, and handle the paperwork with your insurance company. Then, we repair the <a href=\"..\/..\/es\/blog\/tipos-de-roturas-parabrisas\"><strong>broken car glass<\/strong><\/a> using vacuum and resin, and finally, we sign the necessary documents and return your car to you.
