Very correct, I forgot to mention that.
That is why those money transporters only have Lexan in the doors, never as
a windshield itself. On the windshield, if not solid very thick glass, the
Lexan is mounted behind the original windshield.

Plex will have sharper edges as Lexan.
But, they both can cut you.

Same in said Brinks trucks, if the drivers wipe the inside of the Lexan, its
ruined.
