No, the Compulsory Traffic does not cover the repair costs for your own car's broken windshield, as it is designed to compensate for damages to third-party vehicles and individuals. To claim for your vehicle's damage, you must have purchased a separate vehicle damage insurance. The Compulsory Traffic Insurance is mandatory by the state, and without it, you cannot legally drive on the road. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," the traffic management department of the public security authority may detain the motor vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding license, mark, or complete the necessary procedures, and may issue a warning or impose a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan. Compulsory Traffic Insurance for Vehicles: The full name of the Compulsory Traffic Insurance is "Compulsory Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents." It is a mandatory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates within the liability limits for personal injuries, deaths, and property losses of victims (excluding vehicle occupants and the insured) caused by road traffic accidents involving the insured motor vehicle. The premium is based on the nationally unified standard rates. However, the price of Compulsory Traffic Insurance varies for different vehicle types, mainly influenced by the number of car seats. Compared to the over 20 exemption clauses in commercial third-party liability insurance, the exemption scope of Compulsory Traffic Insurance covers losses caused by intentional acts of the victim, the insured's own property losses, related arbitration and litigation costs, and some indirect losses from accidents, offering much broader coverage. Moreover, regardless of whether the insured vehicle is at fault in the accident, the Compulsory Traffic Insurance will compensate within the liability limits, with no deductible or exemption. Introduction to Electronic Insurance Policies: An electronic insurance policy refers to a digital policy issued by an insurance company using digital signature software that complies with the PKI system and an enterprise digital certificate, bearing the electronic signature of the insurance company. An insurance policy, abbreviated as a policy, is the formal written proof of the insurance contract between the insurer and the insured. The policy must fully record the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of both parties to the insurance contract. The content recorded in the policy serves as the basis for both parties to fulfill the contract. The insurance policy is proof of the establishment of the insurance contract. Advantages of Electronic Insurance Policies: Saves paper resources, eliminating the need to print insurance proof marks on paper; Saves time and is convenient, not restricted by time or location, with information universally accessible online anytime, quickly and easily; Allows for reissuance and resending, eliminating worries about losing it. If a paper version is needed offline, it can also be printed or mailed; Facilitates management, as electronic standardization makes it easier for insurance companies and traffic police departments to manage the insurance information of various vehicles.

I've been driving for over a decade, and windshield damage is indeed quite common. But don't count on compulsory traffic to cover it, as it specifically protects against injuries to others or damage to others' property in accidents. When my own windshield cracked, I tried to claim it under compulsory insurance, but the insurer clearly stated it wasn't covered because it wasn't third-party liability damage. If you have commercial insurance with vehicle damage coverage or an additional glass breakage clause, you might be able to file a claim. I recommend checking your policy immediately to confirm coverage. A damaged windshield seriously affects safe driving—blurred vision can worsen cracks, so it's crucial to drive straight to a professional repair shop for replacement. When driving, keep your distance from trucks or construction zones to reduce the risk of stone impacts. Remember, maintaining your car windows saves money and lives.

Replacing the windshield can be quite expensive. Last time, it cost me around 700 to over 1,000 RMB. Compulsory traffic definitely won't cover it, as it only compensates for injuries or property damage to third parties in accidents. My advice is to repair it promptly to prevent the crack from expanding and doubling the cost. Check if your insurance includes vehicle damage coverage - having additional glass coverage is most convenient. If you don't have commercial insurance, you'll have to pay out of pocket, so it's better to add this coverage when renewing your policy. For daily parking, try to avoid areas under trees or near construction sites to reduce the risk of accidents. Don't underestimate this piece of glass - it's crucial for driving safety.

My windshield was cracked once by a flying stone. When I reported it to the company, I learned that compulsory traffic insurance doesn't cover damage to my own vehicle, only the other party's losses in an accident. If you have vehicle damage insurance, it can cover windshield repair costs. Since then, I always check my insurance coverage. For safety, it's important to repair a damaged windshield promptly to avoid distractions while driving.

If the windshield is damaged, do not drive immediately, as compulsory traffic does not cover such self-damage situations. It is mandatory but only covers third-party liability. I recommend first calling the insurance company to check if the auto damage insurance covers it, then scheduling a professional repair. Remember to choose an authorized shop for original factory glass to ensure quality. Be careful with high-pressure water guns during regular car washes to avoid cracks. Safety first.

Compulsory traffic is designed to protect public safety and only covers damages caused to others in an accident. It does not cover damage to your own vehicle, such as a broken windshield. I didn't know this before and ended up paying for the repairs myself. I recommend using the vehicle damage or glass coverage in commercial insurance for reimbursement. For prevention, regularly inspect your vehicle to avoid aging risks and drive carefully to avoid obstacles. Address issues promptly to prevent safety hazards.
