Sunroof exploded on the highway with no one in-front of me to kick up any rocks or debris.
I was driving down the highway with my mom, no cracks in any of my windows before any of this by the way. And my sunroof exploded. Huge huge explosion sound. I thought something fell but there was nothing above us.
As I was driving down the road I heard what sounded like a gunshot and glass shattering. Upon getting to my destination I found that my panoramic sunroof had shattered outward.
