Need a new windscreen?

The roads in Kuwait do not hold up well to water, particularly because the government contracts for 20 cm thick asphalt but the contractors save money by laying the asphalt only 6 cm thick. This means after a heavy rain, the asphalt breaks apart and then tends to become a flying projectile right towards your windscreen.
