Large side window

30rkdd owner here. It has a large window on the passenger side next to the door. My question is, how weather/wind resistant are these large windows? For instance, I'm parked honestly in the middle of nowhere with the window facing the north... No wind blocks, no trees, no anything... About a half hour ago, the wind shifts and comes straight out of the north at, IMHO, about 45+ mph... All I've been able to find online is the statement "safety window glass"... How much wind it too much? 50? 80 mph? Please advise! Any input appreciated!

I guess if you're looking for an opinion, if the wind is blowing hard enough to break the window glass, your trailer may be laying on it's side. I've never heard of the glass breaking from wind unless the wind picks up some debris that may impact the window.

I think they have to meet DOT standards which would be the same as the glass on a vehicle. As Ray pointed out unless it picks up some debris you should be okay though you might want to check the seals (cracked, peeling) to make sure they are not brittle and can hold the window and dust from getting in.
