Florida Windshield Law And What You Should Know

By Cynthia Whiteley


It is true that in Florida you should never drive with a broken windshield if you have full coverage insurance. The reason is you don't have to. Your full coverage will cover it. There are some loop holes occasionally, which is why you always want to call us at Same Day Windshields : 813-731-1984.

We handle the entire process for you, ensuring that you get OEM quality glass at no extra cost to you. In fact, you pay nothing for the consultation. Simply give us a call and we will set up a time come to you, on-site, wherever you are, and begin the replacement process.

The turnaround time for windshields to be completed by our company is usually 24 hours, Max 48 hours. Comprehensive coverage typically pays for damages occurring from:

- Fire.

- Animal collisions.

- Storms

- Fires.

Inquire toady to see whether we can cover your windshield repair/replacement in your comprehensive coverage. If you want high quality OEM glass, give us a call at 813-731-1984.

Even if you read the words "auto glass repair," inquire if it is all-inclusive or not. Some auto glass replacement on some comprehensive coverage plans only covers the side and back windows, but not the windshield itself. In Florida, with the windshield statute we have here the actual windshield should be covered.

If your windshield (or other glass) is damaged by something other than a collision, you may need to pay for it using comprehensive coverage however you should be aware that this coverage is just optional and if you didn't choose comprehensive before the crack appeared on your windshield, you may be on your own when it comes time to pay for repairs.

Lastly, you may ask will I pay a deductible? If state laws mandate that the deductible not be applied, for example, in certain states, like Florida, regulations mandate that insurers cannot apply a deductible on comprehensive claims for windshield damages, according the Insurance Journal. In those states, you can repair or replace your windshield without paying any type of insurance deductible.
