I just assumed the crack would be a decent size as the poster was asking about it.
You are correct about the 40mm but also statesIn addition to this area of windscreen, MOT guidelines require any chip or crack within the remainder of the area swept by the wipers to be contained within a diameter of 40mm.
I'm surprised your crack has lasted through 2 MOTs and not got any bigger0
