windshield

The windshield (North American English) or windscreen (Commonwealth English except Canada) of an aircraft, car, bus, motorbike, truck, train, boat or streetcar is the front window, which provides visibility while protecting occupants from the elements.

Motorcycle windshields are often made of high-impact polycarbonate or acrylic plastic.
