      If someone is locked in your car and you’re the owner you simply use the key and open the door, no need to break anything, except in a Tesla.

        Some cars aren’t quite that simple, on newer models they’re hiding the keyhole on the bottom side of the handle behind a cover. But usually those models won’t lock with the keys inside the car

      I mean, presumably if I’m standing outside my car with a key, I just unlock the door and open it. Can’t do that with a dead tesla.
