The law states that your deductible will be waived.
You’re exactly right Red Tail! When we lived in Florida & I got a small spider crack (a little chip with very small 1/4” cracks around it) in my windshield, it was fixed for FREE. We presently live in Texas & had a drivers door glass shattered, fixed for FREE. Here in Texas, Ins. never got involved. They just said NO CHARGE!
