Default Where to get drivers side windshield chip fixed?

Picked up another chip in my windshield this morning on the way to work. I call the Glass Doctor, and am told that under GA Law they cannot fix a chip or crack on the drivers side of the car because it could cause "distortion". The only thing they could do for me was replace the whole windshield. It's a small chip, about the size of 3 ballpoint pin heads in a row, but I can see it and it bugs me. Has anyone in the Atlanta community had a drivers side chip repaired. If so, by who?

Thanks a bunch,

Mike

I'd be curious about the what, how, and where of the windshield repiar also. I've only heard of people getting our windshield replaced, haven't seen a repaired one.

I have had a previous windshield fixed.

The "fix" will stop the crack / chip from spreading, but the "fix" looks worse that just the chip.

They have to drill the chip into a smooth surface, and then fill it. Looks like $hit.
If it bugs you now, it will bug you more later.

Sorry!
