Actually, you are wrong. Again. The windshield must be in place if you are
driving on the street. You cited the rules for windshield wipers, not
windshields.

Windshields: Exception
26700. (a) Except as provided in subdivision (b), a passenger vehicle,
other than a motorcycle, and every bus, motortruck or truck tractor, and
every firetruck, fire engine or other fire apparatus, whether publicly or
privately owned, shall be equipped with an adequate windshield.

(b) Subdivision (a) does not apply to any vehicle issued identification
plates pursuant to Section 5004 which was not required to be equipped with a
windshield at the time it was first sold or registered under the laws of
this state, another state, or foreign jurisdiction.


Basically, everything on the highway that is not a motorcycle must have a
windshield unless there is some reason it was not required to have a
windshield when it was first sold. This means that an antique car that might
not have had a windshield when it was first made does not need to be
retrofitted to have a windshield. There hasn't been a car made for several
decades that does not have a windshield, with the exception of a golf cart
or similar such vehicle.

Re: Door Removal
 

Ask one of your Highway Patrol friends, it just must be on the car
it, I repeat again, it doesn't have to be up. Drive the coast route with
it down and see for yourself.
