Has anybody broken a truck window when mounting a spotting scope on it?

Having a truck window spotting scope mount would be a huge convenience for me, but I feel like with my ADHD, I'd lean on my scope too much, or not be gentle enough when panning and the leverage would easily break the window.

Can someone tell me if these concerns are valid, or am I making a big deal out of something that isn't really likely?
 
Make sure there is nothing metal touching the glass on the window mount...never done it but know guys that have. Takes just a small piece of metal touching the glass to shatter it.
 
Long time ago my buddy shtot (using his window as a rest for his 22-250) at a woodchuck out across my granddads field and he ended up with a lapful of glass.

Funny part was about a week later he was leaning across the bedside shooting at another one and clipped his tailgate and that bullet opened that tailgate up like a can opener.....lol
