This is the hilarious moment a driver cut a square hole in a car's windscreen tint to see clearly.

A woman had lent her car to her uncle for the New Year holidays, only to have it returned with the tint film cut away in front of the driver's seat in Chonburi, Thailand.

The car owner recalled that she was initially upset and shocked when she saw the rectangular gap in her windscreen, but once she calmed down, she began to see the situation in perspective.

She said: 'I realised that he probably struggled to see the road and did it for safety. If that is the case, why would I be so upset about it?'

She then took the car for a drive and was delighted to discover that it was much easier to see the road without the dark tint.

Footage shows the woman bursting into laughter as she drives around the city, seemingly enjoying the clear view of the road, on January 9.

She added: 'Looking on the bright side, the film was old anyway, and now I have an excuse to finally replace it.'
