    I agree. My intent is not to defend the design, only to explain that the car does not physically prevent you from opening the doors. If it did, I doubt it could legally have gone to market, though I’ve been disappointed before.

    In the case of my car, it’s actually primarily for my wife. She has a cricut and printed out stickers indicating the various hidden ways to interact with the car.

    Also, in my experience, almost every adult who has tried to open the door from within has asked what would happen if the battery died, so after their first time exiting they theoretically know how to exit in an emergency.

    Not a good design or UX - Tesla is way too obsessed with minimalism - but not automatically a casket.
