Also if the door is locked it might be less likely to fly open in an accident, although that was something that mostly happened with those thumb button handles of the 70s Is your wife saying that she is going to drive around without looking the doors? That seems more unsafe to me. Mark.

Replying to: keeferb (Aug 07, 2007 6:52 pm) Watch the guy get carjacked in his minivan with unlocked doors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJfFhg7-b-A I don't know why people feel safer driving around in an unlocked car. And she wants to drive around with her kids in her unlocked car also? http://louisville.edu/admin/dps/safety/carjacking.htm |

Replying to: bdyment (Aug 08, 2007 3:54 am) Also - all Fords allow you to open the front doors without unlocking them. A Lincoln LS owner modified his car to do the auto-unlock when the car was put into Park (auto-unlock wasn't a feature on the early models).

Replying to: akirby (Aug 08, 2007 5:28 am) That is one minor thing I find annoying in my Mazda compared to previous Fords...that you have to unlock the door before opening it. Is this a Japanese thing? The only other car we have had that worked that way was a Nissan. My wife's VW has auto locking and is programmed to unlock all doors when key is removed. That set up is optional, but even without setting it up that way, you can open the front doors without having to first unlock them. |
