Hey everyone! Just wanted to inform those looking for a practice windshield on where to get one.

- Find any local repair/windshield replacement company.
- Give them a call and ask them if you can come pickup one of their broken windshields.
- If yes, drive on down and pick it up!

I find this easier than going to an auto salvage yard or junk yard for a windshield.

Hopefully this will help some one you!

Taking without asking would be called theft by finding over here. Possible fine a maybe even a criminal record if they bothered to prosecute.

Screenman you guys must not have people starving to death because I see people everyday digging through garbage but I know what you are saying.I really dont think to many people go to jail here for getting stuff out of the garbage.

Tatty have charged a man - Toad Hall - with "theft by finding" - which carries a maximum jail sentence of 7 years - after he allegedly stole £215-worth of food from a bin outside one of the stores.

Names changed, but this made the news a short while back.

Just be careful about what you do and use your best judgement. I'd much rather have permission to take than to take and get in trouble for it. A little time to call and ask could save you a load of trouble. I'd recommend asking for permission.
