Obviously, it was implied by "My reality".
Anyway the only real safety issue I can see is that rear doors doesn't have such a system, but I guess the theory here is that there should never be a case when someone is left alone in the rear seat (i.e. Tesla's "dog mode" explicitly tells you that it's just for pet, not meant for humans)

- lawn 3y agoIs it that hard to imagine that kids might have trouble finding the switch? Or that the person in the front are rendered unconscious and now the persons at the back are stuck?
- darkwater 3y agoI think you are mixing scenarios here. The initial scenario was that the car had no power (and anyway locks are powered by the LV battery, not the HV one), which is not a safety emergency situation. In that case, the person driving can get out of the car using the mechanical lever and open thee rear door(s) using the normal external handle. In case of an emergency, where no power is available anymore, well ,we are most probably talking about a serious enough car crash. In that case, AFAIK, Tesla - just like any other car manufacturer out there - has a system that trigger airbags and unlock doors when detecting a crash. But yet in that case, the ones in the rear seats has less chances to escape from the car, that's probably true.
