driving doorless helps me not fall asleep at the wheel - so its safer than with doors on.

Let me ask you guys this since you tend to think doors do not help support structural stability .Do you think glass has any structural support?

That's a loaded question, but sure I'll bite.
![]() Glass does have structural support but again we need to put it into context. The windshield most definitely adds structural support for the roof and says so in the FSM. What about other glass? If it is fixed glass then yes I would say it does add some support albeit minor. Window glass panels that roll down will add no more structural support to the unibody than the doors themselves do when flexing. But in an accident like the situation I made as an example, yes they would add support because it takes a certain amount of pressure to crush them. If you put a glass panel on end it can support a tremendous amount of weight.
