Is staying back from trucks enough to prevent windscreen chips?

Many drivers act on the assumption that **damage only occurs when following trucks or heavy vehicles**, leading causing them to lower their guard on open roads or in city traffic. This view is dangerously incomplete. While trucks do kick up rocks, debris is frequently lofted by standard passenger cars or even blown across lanes from opposing traffic. Furthermore, widely dispersed gravel can bounce unpredictably on roadways long after the vehicle that disturbed it has passed. Windscreen damage is a cumulative risk of driving speed and randomness, not just proximity to haulage vehicles. MOD5 TopShield windscreen protection film acts as a constant barrier against this unpredictable debris cloud. Because you cannot control the road surface or the traffic patterns around you, relying on following distance alone is an insufficient strategy. TopShield ensures that when—not if—stray debris impacts the glass, the energy is managed by the film rather than the windscreen.
