The only survivor of the October 24 fire was a woman in her 20s who was able to get to safety after a quick thinking passer-by smashed a window of the burning Model Y car to free her
I’m not defending the design or placement, just pointing out it’s there and that the driver should know what’s in their car.
And IMO, it’s on them to inform passengers.
As I’ve said with others here multiple times, I think the larger issue you’re touching on is valid, but also not exclusively a Tesla issue. Every manufacturer has a different way of invoking an emergency manual door release in recent cars, EV and ICE. Maybe that should be standardized across the board?
I agree with you that it’s not just tesla. I do also think we already have a standardised method of opening doors, and they should stick with it
Not arguing that. Electronic door releases are nice but complicate things in an emergency.
