While driving to work this morning (at 6:40am 3/30/05), the driver's side window totally (100%) shattered. I was driving on the freeway at 65mph. All the windows were rolled up and the heater was on. I was alone in the car and was not injured in any way. The outside temperature was in the 40's and the sun was shining on the window (a clear morning). To the best of my knowledge, the window was not impacted by any object. No cars or persons were on my left side. Most of the window ended up on the car's floor and in my lap. Some pieces remained stuck in the frame.
