The answer varies by municipality. Most of them require some sort of decal on a glass door. I am not aware of a requirement applying to panels that are not doors.

Should they? Yes. Is there a legal requirement? It depends on the circumstances and local building codes. If you have been injured by a glass panel, consult with a personal injury attorney in the area where the injury occurred. There is a four-year time limit for filing suit on a personal injury resulting from negligence in Florida.
