Forget all the math.
If you're at a dead stop and someone T-Bones you, it's coming off the windshield. If you roll, and the windshield is crushed or cracks and the suction cups lose their hold, it's coming off. I was not paying attention and cut my hand just washing the car with it mounted on a tow hook holder before I put a plate frame on it. What do you think it's going to do to any skin it comes into contact with in a violent accident?
Not to jump on a soapbox or anything, but why even bother to put it in the windshield? You know it's illegal to not have it mounted (with some exceptions) on the front of the car, so just leave it off....It's either a ticket for no front plate, or a ticket for having it in the windshield......

I have it on the dash because some Police officers don't enforce the same. I used to park (A different vehicle) downtown Tacoma. I would throw my plate on the dash whenever I parked there. For six months, not a single parking ticket. The first time I ever forgot to put my plate on the dash, I got a no front plate ticket.
