  1. That what regular glass does already. You need rather large rock to chip a windshield. Trust me I live in Alberta we get chip every year. About 50% of the time I can see the rock coming.

  2. Well there is also a thing called metal glass - i.e. metal that is glass - i.e. glass is a state. Main problem with this armor glass is that current cars and trucks already have very, very damage resistant glass. Try to go to a junk yard and break a window - go ahead - see how "easy" it is. In fact current car windows can deflect low energy bullets or greatly decrease penetration - see videos on youtube of actual rounds fired at junked cars. So why not a stronger glass? Notice that glass windows need to break - you don't want indestructible windows in case of an accident. One can also go with something like gorilla glass used on phones - the actual ceramic is the future of phone glass but not so much cars.
