They might be, especially when new. Nothing about having to be shatterproof.The windows are NOT bulletproof!
But the point is that "bulletproof" is a general concept and common metaphor with no specific legal definition. My shaving mirror might or might not be bulletproof, depending on a dozen factors about the bullet, the weapon firing it, the firing distance and angle, whether "proof" means stopping or slowing enough to be trivial -- and that's not how courts work.
To show how silly this law is, suppose there's bullets flying around me in a playground. I put a child's toy car on my head, and it stops some bullets. Does every owner of that toy model get charged with owning a bulletproof vehicle?
