Hold on, shouldn't doors open in a crash? Isn't them not opening a major problem when you're trying to escape?
Once the crash is finished, sure. But mid crash the door opening could lead to leaving the vehicle unintentionally.
if the car is unbuckling you too, it means that it knows you're safer out of the Tesla!
You don't want the doors to open while crashing, you want them to open when emergency gets there.
Aaah, sorry, misunderstood that. 😅
It's all cool. 👍🏾
And emergency crews carry the tool to cut them open if needed.
