It's about time. We've known about this kind of illegal stuff for many years. Now what are you going to do about it? How are you going to manage this kind of operation?

You pay next to nothing for the replacement of the glass and the shops have to find the cheapest solution to make a buck, no wonder the mobile units that float around make so much money. Do they pay the local tax's and fee for being in your town and taking your money and leaving with the money? They take money away from your community and dont spend it there. The insurance industry needs to take a closer look at the auto glass industry and then look at themselves in the mirror. They might be surprised at what they find.
