How long do you have to fix a cracked windshield once received citation per the California Vehicle Code?
The California Vehicle Code does not specify how long you have to fix a cracked windshield once you've been cited. However, you must repair or replace the windshield within a reasonable period. What constitutes a reasonable period is up to the discretion of the law enforcement officer who issued the citation. If you do not repair or replace the windshield within a reasonable period, you may be subject to additional fines or penalties.
It's important to note that driving with a cracked windshield is illegal in California. A cracked windshield can obstruct your vision and make it difficult to see other vehicles, pedestrians, and hazards on the road. If you have a cracked windshield, you should have it repaired or replaced as soon as possible.
