That is a scary thing! I had it happen to me years ago in one of my cars. I had been charging an RC car off the car battery and forgot to latch the hood completely when I was done. Driving down a windy, narrow back road when the hood slammed up against the windshield. Did nothing to the glass but the hood hinges tore right through the sheetmetal strip where the vents were located. Hood still closed fine after that and only had a small dent in the center where it smacked the windshield. Never did get the hinge tears repaired though. ended up junking the car eventually anyway.
