Are Honda Accord fog light lenses particularly prone to breaking?

The glass of both of my front fog lights has broken within a month of each other. The car is garaged and not left anywhere unusual and no sign of damage anywhere else on the front bumper. Am I just unlucky or are you aware of this happening to other Honda Accord owners?

Bad design to fit polycarbonate headlight lenses, yet glass lenses to much more vulnerable foglights. Offenders include Honda and Subaru. I've commented on this before.
