You can't, vibrations from bumps will eventually spread throughout entire shield. However, it is possible to repair chips in a windscreen, if caught early enough, via the high-pressure injection of a polymer compound that (almost) invisibly fills the chip and mitigates further damage.

If the windshield has a tiny crack, some windshield companies can seal the crack but if the windshield has a big crack or is partly shattered, the windshield has to be removed and replaced by a new windshield. Go to a search engine on the internet and type in windshield companies and then type in the name of your city and state. Your search should help you find pro windshield repacers in your local area.
