It's a shame minifigures' cars don't have seat belts. They get into a crash and they are splattering all across this windscreen.
@KotZ:
Serves them right for not cleaning the snow off before driving…
Boat windscreen. I have both sets, and was unaware this part was so uncommon.
Reminds me of the old Aquazone windows, although I don't think it's quite the same size.
The transparent version of this part is https://brickset.com/parts/design-42504.

(Lego Batman voice) life doesn't give you seat belts!
The question on my mind is: How was this never used in a capital starship? They had it in 6175 and that wasn't even the priciest of the line.
This is one brick shorter than the old version.
At first glance I thought this was my favorite windscreen element ever, but I was thinking of the 8x5x3 version from 5590
