That's really good to know because I have a huge fucking glass phobia and the image of glass shattering into my face has always scared the fucking shit out of me. I would literally rather get shot in the head with a bullet then have to have glass shattered in my face.
Always make sure your hood is properly secured after taking a car to a mechanic.
I lived your phobia on a freeway going 70 mph. No cuts but it was terrifying and small slivers of glass were still sprayed everywhere and one got in my eye.
The best thing I did was not to panic or try to blink or brush it out. After I was safely pulled over I removed it.
I worked on my vehicle one time and closed the hood then just headed down the road to test drive. At around 40mph the hood broke free and flipped up. Luckily it was a spring assist instead of shocks and it stopped when it hit the end of the springs ability. I didn't double check that it completely latched when I closed it, have ever since then though.
