From my experience(Fire-Rescue), my guess would be that the driver braced(locked elbows and death gripped the steering wheel) before impact. I have never been on an MVA where the windshield was "blown" out of it's frame. Perhaps the hood punched it out. I'm no accident reconstruction expert, but I have been on several 100 MVA's(no Cobras).
