    No. You just need to be able to exit without power. Getting back in mechanically isn’t a requirement.

    It should be, but it’s not.

      Damn, even fighter jets have an external override. They’re even labeled for rescue workers.

        I don’t know who Jettison Canopy is but I hope he’s around when you need to do this.

          Not these Teslas, from what I understand. The type of glass they use is EXTREMELY resistant to shattering.
