Car owners always want their car to be in top notch condition. For this, they keep a check on any signs of damage and make sure that the car is serviced at regular intervals. While all this is important to ensure that the car is in good condition, parking it carefully also plays an important role in extending the life of your vehicle. It has been seen that the majority of auto glass repairs are done because of the damage due to falling objects when the car is parked at a place it should not be. Here we have listed the reasons why you must park your car carefully:

Tall Trees

People generally like to park their car next to a tall tree, especially in summer days. This is because they think it will protect the car from the direct heat of the sun. But what they often forget is that branches from tall trees may fall off any time, causing damage to the car glass. It may result in cracks in the windshield, and then the only option left with you would be to repair windshield crack. To avoid this situation, it is advised to not park your car next to a tall tree. There are trees with loose branches that look like they are about to fall and parking near those can be very dangerous. Moreover, the sap of certain trees can also damage the paint on the car. 

Construction Sites

People are generally advised to be extra cautious and focussed when driving near construction sites. The same should be done as far as parking the vehicle is concerned. This is because of obvious reasons. Construction sites have many tools and equipment, ladders, paint buckets etc. which if by mistake fall on your car can cause a dent, crack or even serious damage. To avoid this situation, park your car at a distance from the construction site.     
  
Road Trip Stops

When going on road trips with friends and family, people often take short stops at scenic routes as they pass by. There are instances when people stand on the hood of the car to click a selfie or to climb a tree or a building. This can be very dangerous as the body of the car is not made to hold a person climbing up. You may hurt yourself and crack the windshield of your car if by chance you fall. A cracked windshield would then be only fixed by taking your car to a car glass dealer in Bangalore or any other city. To avoid this, it is best to use a stool or ladder for climbing instead of your car.

So, follow the above precautions to avoid windshield damage.
