  Yeah, doesn’t help much in case of actual emergency does it?

    Then break the fucking window if it’s an actual emergency.

      They did

      The child was safely removed from the car after firefighters used an ax to smash through a window

        I know.

        My response was to the previous comment.

        In a non Tesla, if someone is locked in a car, what happens? There isn’t some secret “let me in” button. You just break a window. This is a dumb story.

      Yeah…because breaking the window as your first option in an emergancy is a GREAT idea. No need for a manual handle with a key, right? What a stupid idea that would be.

        It's not your first option in an emergency. Normally you just open the door. Breaking the glass is several layers of things-not-working deep.

      Yeah, that’s much quicker than just unlocking the door with your fucking key, right?

      Agree. The only worry is the flying glass might hurt the child.

        Tempered glass is designed to not be sharp when broken. But they break a window furthest from the person inside to limit damage.

        They can also use some tools to remove the window in mostly one piece after cracking it, rather than smashing it and sending glass flying.
