      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.

          If someone is locked in your car and you’re the owner you simply use the key and open the door, no need to break anything, except in a Tesla.

            Some cars aren’t quite that simple, on newer models they’re hiding the keyhole on the bottom side of the handle behind a cover. But usually those models won’t lock with the keys inside the car

              My keyfob battery was dead and I couldn’t use the hidden keyhole to unlock it. I watched a video on YouTube but I still wasn’t able to make it work. It wasn’t an emergency but I would just break the glass if it was one.

          I mean, presumably if I’m standing outside my car with a key, I just unlock the door and open it. Can’t do that with a dead tesla.

      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.

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