Tempered safety glass does not fail gracefully. This is assuming you don't find evidence of a bullet or slingshot ammo..... I had the same thing happen with the tailgate glass on a Chevy Suburban. It just disintegrated for no apparent reason. Scarey, ain't it? What if it were the windshield, and you were doing 80 mph?
