I have never once in my life asked the driver of a vehicle how to open a door in case of emergency, because you should just be able to use the handle like any other fucking door.

What kind of absolute dipshit asks every driver they ride with where the hidden emergency door releases are on their car? That's never been a thing. Never. Because no one would imagine a door would be so poorly designed.

Counter argument, what kind of absolute dipshit gets into a car with a fucking electronic door button and doesn't look for a manual alternative?

Nobody's saying Tesla doors are fucking well designed, but you would have to he an absolute fucking brick of a human being to get "trapped" in one.
