My boyfriend and I were talking and it came up that when we were kids, a back window of a stationwagon broke on us. It happened to us in separate years. In both instances, we were on board the back of the stationwagon. For both of us, it was blue and was used to transport kids to and from places in school. These were not fleet vehicles -- they were owned by parents of other kids at the school. In both cases, all the glass broke inwards at us. That moment startled me and I was 4 at the time. The back door had not quite closed yet -- the driver was closing it for us and there was a loud bang and all the glass came flying inwards. There was no force that broke the window -- it just "exploded" inwards on its own.
Does anyone know of a design flaw that caused this? Has this happened to other people? And why does the glass fly inwards?
