thanks from leyland.

There is no compulsion fo a windscreen to be fitted.

Just wear some glasses and breath through your mouth so your teeth filter the bugs

Or drive there backwards.

May vary state to state.

Just remember to keep your mouth closed

Just make sure to wear a glazed look while you're driving and no one will notice the difference.

I have driven from North Queensland to Adelaide with NO windscreen ... Put your side windows all up ... and you find it's actually a great way to travel ... Not windy, very comfy

You won't need to wear sunnies or anything ....

If your driving a VB commodore tho ... expect the rear window to blow off tho ..

On most modern vehicles the windscreen is actually a load bearing part of the body, driving the vehicle with no screen can cause damage to the structure of the vehicle. If its an older vehicle or a defender, don't worry.
