Toughened or laminated
EDIT: Laminated, annealed glass for the windshield. It will be held to gether by the plastic if broken, and not break into shards to cut the driver and passenger. The other windows are tempered, and break into small cubes that don't cut.
Classic cars, like '57s chevys, have laminated glass thoughout. Antique cars , like Model T's, had simple plate glass, it caused serious cuts in an accident
