Tests of the new Armoured trucks of the Post Office Department at Fort Meyer today. The windows and wind shields are of bullet proof glass. This photo snaped [sic] at the moment of impact, plainly shows the fine splinters of flying glass, 12/1/21

Gee, why didn't they just test the bulletproof glass before they went to the trouble installing it in the truck? Publicity stunt maybe?
