What happens when a bug hits a windshield?

When a bug hits a windshield, it typically splatters due to the high speed of the vehicle and the impact force. The bug's body, being soft and small, breaks apart, leaving behind a smudge or stain on the glass. This can create a temporary obstruction to visibility, and depending on the size of the bug, it may require cleaning to restore clear vision. Additionally, the impact can serve as a reminder of the various ecosystems that exist alongside our roadways.
