If there was a burning car and I had to open your Tesla's door from the outside to save you, you're dead because I wouldn't be able to figure out how to use the handle, regardless of whether the thing was still powered or not.

Try breaking a window man, do your due diligence and save a life. Don’t just give up at the slight obstacle.

If the occupant is unconscious, dragging one out of the window can make things significantly worse if there are injuries from a crash. The door handle should always be available. Even if the door won't open on one side because of an impact there, use the other side. There are much better alternatives than dragging someone over shattered glass out of a window.

Life over limbs. If the vehicle is on fire and I’m unconscious, fucking drag me out by any means necessary.
