Blimey, i had a stone nearly come through one but this is a whole new ball game, if you were on a bike you would have had it.

I have had a wheel nut come from a lorry travelling in the opposite direction come through the laminated windscreen of a Mercedes and out through the rear window.
Doesn't show you the condition of the drivers seat though---

Apparently the person survived, the seat just literally had that scuff on it that you can see in one picture.

I survived as well it wasn't the scuff,more like the stuff,it didn't half shake me up when it happened. Straight through and out,at the time wife in the front and two kids in the back. We were very lucky,never even got cut by the broken glass

had something similar happen a few years back.an oncoming car flicked up a rock around the size of an apple,it hit the windsreen right in front of my forehead and left a round circular crack.we were doing around 50ish and i would imagine the car coming the other way was doing the same,god only knows what would have happened had it come through as i also had myg/f and my 2 young boys in with me.
