This is because such vehicles often have loose materials embedded within their body which tend to fly off when they move in a fast motion.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Poor quality<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps, the greatest determinant of windscreen damage is in the actual making of the screen itself. The cheaper the quality of the glass, the more prone it is to damage, even from the littlest of acts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Fluctuating temperatures <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With extremely high temperatures in Dubai, car screens are highly susceptible to it.
