windshield just got pwned on the highway

I was driving on highway to richmond and out of nowhere something flies into my windshield. I don't know if it were a rock or a bird.. But now my windshield is cracked and messed up. There's no other damage to the car but I was wondering if this were claimable for icbc and on what grounds. I'll link a picture asap.

As long as you have comprehensive coverage you will be covered. You can most likely go directly to an ICBC glass express shop to deal with the claim for a $200 deductible.

If you have Comprehensive, then it's a 200 deductible, otherwise you're on your own.

That must have been a huge rock to have caused that damage while you were traveling at the posted speed limit. Glad you are alright, brother.

Glad u are ok.
If u have comprehensive with $300 deductible, then you are paying $200 for the replacement. Otherwise you'll have to pay whatever your comprehensive deductible is.

Pay attention to what your deductible is. Mine is at $300. When I went to Speedy Glass, the job only cost $290. I therefore did not go through ICBC for the repair.

Yeah, I guess I'm damn lucky the projectile hadn't gone thru the windshield or I'd have been ko'd, plus I was going 90 on the highway, god knows what wouldve happened if I had been severely distracted..

On top of that I guess its a good thing there was no damage anywhere but the windshield.

Never seen a rock that big fly into windshields before :X

Good thing I have comprehensive coverage. Question though: it says it includes a 200$ deduct for windshield damage caused by missiles or flying objects, how much do I actually pay for the deductible? 200$?

Awesome! Thanks

200$ should be considered cheap I suppose. As opposed to the damage that could have happened

if you are picky and want an OE glass, then i guess you would have to speak to icbc or the installer to add $75 for an original equiptment glass. it may also take a bit to get it.


please dont skimp out on a repair like an automotive windsheild. take it to the professionals... speedy auto glass? i have heard too many stories about installers using too much silicon and it clogs to water drains and causes interior leaks and rusting of the car.

good luck on your repair.

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
