  • Tesla model 3 does have mechanical door release mechanisms (at least for the front doors

    It’s in the door pocket, under the rubber liner at the bottom of the pocket

    People really need to read the owners manual for their cars, but also companies that make innovative changes to basic safety systems like door handles should make some effort to inform their customers how to bypass those things

    Other things tesla fails to tell their customers, aside from in the owner’s manual, include that pressing and holding the park button activates emergency braking

    The article was wrong that the electronic door latching prevents people outside helping those trapped in the car, the outside handle are mechanical, they will work unless the door is locked

    I have definitely heard of children being killed by a car while waiting for a bus in a bus shelter several metres away from the road

    I have read about cars smashing through walls of houses

    I have read about a car used to kill the children of the driver in a lake well away from the road

    Cars are not guaranteed to be on roads when they are killing people




  • These people imagine that a mushroom that destroys your liver would have some other offensive effect also

    They would probably be surprised to find that mushrooms that will kill you also taste fine and don’t cause any effect except the one that kills you

    The was a famous murder case in Australia recently where the victims were fed a mushroom dish that none had a problem with until days later when they died

    Ed. Oh, you replied to yourself, that made it pretty unclear that your down voted reply was as credible as your up voted statement
