I was thinking about more the mundane opening of doors/windows under stress. I really dislike not having a mechanic switch there.

- mindslight 11y agoFrom what I understand, a car sinking in water is pretty much impossible to open doors anyway? Do some new cars really rely on soft controls for opening doors? That seems like it would be annoying from the get-go, and perhaps resulted in the car being purposely driven into a lake. Then again, so is being required to use a touchscreen while driving yet they're now being adopted for radios - remember when texting and driving wasn't a major safety problem because T9 was ubiquitous? For possibly being not able to roll windows down, that ship sailed a long time ago. Although there is a huge reliability difference between a simple switch on a direct battery rail, and relying on two microprocessors plus a likely DC/DC converter.
