From the original post:

> According to the German Automobile Association, manual opening is only possible from the inside, which complicates rescue attempts for emergency services.

The issue, other than complicated internal release, was the lack of an external way to manually open the doors. (e.g.: driver is unconscious with small kids who haven't read the manual)

I clicked the article and now I feel fucking angry that there's a detailed manual on how to open these cars' doors.

"Open the door" is a standalone manual, as a sentence. If that's not the case, no doubt there's some Aspergers tech nerd involved.

I'd like to see stuff like this elevated to conspiracy to murder through tech-shit means.
