Four Passengers Die in Burning Tesla After Electronic Doors Seemingly Won't Open
Four people died after a Tesla crashed and burst into flames, while a fifth person narrowly escaped after a bystander broke open a window.

Anyone who owns a car should install a life hammer. Doesn't matter if it's a Tesla or an old clunker.
Some cars use laminated glass side windows that canโt be broken by those tools.
That was helpful. Thanks for sharing that story.
This is something that can be addressed with owners, but what about passengers? Should they be carrying one around?
How 'bout Tesla just makes fucking mechanical door handles again?
And you'd need a jackhammer for a cybertruck
Teslas were never meant to be functioning vehicles. The whole point is the cool factor, them being "drivable" is an afterthought.
Every Tesla has an emergency mechanical door handle. On some models, the rear passenger doors do not.
Huh. It's almost as if I already said that.
And linked to the instructions for the Model Y.
And already pointed out that they're well-concealed which is not what you want for an emergency.
Almost.
Seat headrests can be pulled out and the metal guides used in a pinch.
Not on a Tesla, fixed headrests on 3 and Y.
On a Tesla, it seems like explosive bolts would be the way to go.
