Which car is safer, with or without a sunroof?

The benefits and reasons to buy a car with a sunroof, we could name a ton of them.

For example, the most obvious thing is that the field of vision is good. Although it is not as good as a convertible, at least you can see the blue sky and white clouds when you look up. Ah, you can lie in the car and look up at the stars on a field outing;

There is also a sunroof that can quickly cool down the car; Take the dirty gas in the car out of the car;

Of course, there is another most important advantage, that is, in an emergency, he is still an escape exit.

Having said so many benefits of sunroofs, would a car with a sunroof become unsafe like an iPhone with a big screen, and it could not help falling?

Tell me about the two situations I saw that our WeChat background users left me a message:

For example, if a flower pot suddenly falls from the sky and brings disaster, no one can imagine it. If it happens to hit the skylight, the glass one will definitely not be able to withstand the smashing of the iron sheet. Wouldn’t this increase the danger even more? ?

Also, if the car rolls over and rolls over, and the roof glass is shattered, will it cause harm to the people in the car?

I will talk to you one by one. First of all, if a flower pot suddenly falls from the sky, will the damage to the skylight be greater than that without a skylight?

Actually, in our impression, glass is very fragile, almost incomparable with metal iron, so we intuitively tell The hardness and impact resistance of our iron sheet without skylight must be stronger than that of glass with skylight.

However, the advancement of science and technology is sometimes really counter-intuitive to human beings. Now the requirements for the strength and fragmentation of automobile sunroofs are very high, and even some automobile manufacturers use metal glass for sunroof glass. Glass is known as the “King of Glass”, and its strength is even stronger than steel, 10 times stronger than the tempered glass we have seen. Moreover, even after this sunroof glass is smashed, it will burst into small pieces and shatter into one place, and there will be no sharp edges and corners to protect the safety of the people in the car.

In addition, for a flowerpot falling from the sky, the probability of such a falling object will be too small. Besides, this It is not an ordinary impact. For example, the windshield of the car is smashed by a stone, and the body structure and safety are not damaged.

Then if we worry about this, have we ever thought about driving a convertible and driving a motorcycle, both are the same. Therefore, the sunroof is allowed to be produced, and it has been tested for safety, which can reduce personnel injuries as much as possible. Therefore, we should not be more worried about this.
