Is it safe to drive immediately after glass repair?
Safety depends on the type of repair. If it’s a chip or small crack, most professionals allow driving within an hour. When I used a Kissimmee windshield repair service, they recommended waiting at least 60 minutes to allow adhesives to cure properly. For full replacements, the wait time could be longer—sometimes up to 24 hours. Driving too soon can compromise the seal or lead to shifting. Always follow the technician’s post-repair instructions. If unsure, ask specifically about the safe drive-away time to ensure your vehicle remains roadworthy and the windshield stays intact during impact.
