Does hail damage cars?
1 Answers
Hail can damage cars. Smaller hailstones, such as those the size of soybeans, have minimal impact and generally do not cause harm to vehicles. 1. Analysis: Cars have a certain level of resistance to impact, and in most cases, they will be fine unless the vehicle's body or glass is of poor quality. Hail falling from high altitudes carries significant potential energy and can be quite destructive. Generally, hailstones the size of a one-yuan coin can damage a car, causing harm to the windshield and paint. 2. Prevention: During hailstorms, try to park your car in a sheltered area, preferably in an underground parking lot. If the car is parked outdoors, covering it with a thick blanket can help reduce damage. If there is no place to hide when hail strikes, quickly move to the back seat of the car to avoid injury from shattered windshield glass.
