Angry Crack on my windshield!!!!!

So I was driving to work this morning... On the highway, I wasn't driving too fast, maybe 100km/h (60mp/h). I hear a loud *TOK*. I knew I got a stone chip so I was like FUCK!!!! cause I thought there goes another stone chip on my hood/bumper. Worst is 10 seconds later, I noticed a "star" crack on my windshield. That's when I screamed FUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I got 2 of them on my windshield. DAMMIT!!!! Sorry about this, just needed to vent.

Since I have 2 cracks on my windshield, I'm thinking about getting it replace. Howmuch am I looking at to replace the windshield?

After taxes, you're probably looking at roughly $350 - $400 to replace the windshield. If you have USAA insurance, they will have Safelight come out and mitigate the cracks for you for free.

I agree with this, replacing it will cost a lot more money. I have a small one and when I get more then I'll just get it fixed at the same time.

yeah you could take it to a place and your insurance will pay for it but your insurance will also go up if you do that, i would just take it to a place and pay the 100 dollars or however much to have the chips fixed before they turn into a long crack
