I haven't, but a co-worker was recently pulled over for a crack on the passenger side.

No ~ will likely repair a crack before others notice it - particularly if it is that visible.

No, But it is a good idea to have them fixed before cold weather sets in. When the defrosters hit a cold window the crack could become larger and block your field of view.

I've never allowed any chip in my windshield to expand into a crack. Getting a chip repaired is cheap compared to a new windshield.

yes, Had a rock chip that expanded out due to cold weather to a crack. Before I could get it fixed I was pulled over by a state cop. No ticket was issued just told me to get it fixed. Did right after that

Nope, because I don't have a crack in my windshield and if I did I would replace it because in Kentucky there is no deductible for it.
