Damn little rock

When I was driving in the freeway, a little rock hit my windshiel. It gave it a little crack, how can I prevent the crack from getting bigger?

You can buy a windshield repair kit. I bought one recently for my wifes Accord. We had a stone crack the passengers side and I didnt want it to start spider webbing on me. I think it was made by Permatex or 3M.. I dont recall. But it worked well, you can barely see where its cracked now.

get a wingshield repair kit before it gets too big. Also if your insurence covers broken windshields, just toss a spark plug at it, and get a new one

The honda dealership might be able to fill the crack. I got mine done at a glass place though. A lot of car shops can fill a crack. Hurry up before the vibrations make it bigger.
