I'd be very surprised if it was legal to drive, but if stopped and you were able to prove you were taking it for a pre-arranged repair, I doubt any action would be taken.
Did you report the suspected cause of the damage to the police?

Thanks Doki and Chris. I suspected as much but thought that the "pre-booked appointment" thing may make it OK. No, I didn't report it to the police, purely because I couldn't be sure that someone had dropped something. One second everything's OK, the next second a big bang and an underpants moment :o)
Thinking about it though I will do, in case they've had other reports. Cheers guys
Could have been caused by a stone kicked up by the tyres of another vehicle. Looks small enough. I had a side window shattered once on a m/way, as I was overtaking a lorry. Hit the window like bullet. If it hadn't hit my car, it could have crossed the carriageway and hit a car coming in the opposite direction.. Rare I imagine, but I doubt my experience is unique. Mike
