Toughened glass was first invented by a glassmaker who wanted to make a windscreen for a vehicle such as a car or a train so that it would break into lots of tiny fragments that would cause less injury to someone if they were thrown through it if the vehicle was involved in a collision. (If ordinary glass were used it would crack into large pieces which would badly cut that person.)
