Has anyone thought about how emergency responders would be able to access passengers in the event of an accident and the passengers were unable to open the doors. Since the windows are bullet proof and there are no external door handles. How will emergency responders gain access to the passengers in an emergency situation IE: roll over, water rescue, crushed passager compartment?

I'm extremely good at figuring out quick solutions for little issues like this. Any little opening in the body, or small crack in the windows/windshield, drop a grenade in. That'll loosen things right up. I know this creates other problems, but we can figure out those later. Thanks!

Who said that the windows are “bulletproof”? Also, there are door handles on the pillars.

same way they get through any shatterproof window.. take an item with a VERY low cross section and smack it into the window... that creates point defects at that location.. now pop the window with a hammer and it shatters ... much like it did at the demo.

Powered circular and reciprocating saws with the right blades won't have any problem opening up the vehicle to provide access, as long as the responders are educated on CUT/NO-CUT zones of the body.

If it's anything like my Model 3 you just hook a 9v battery to the wires coming outta the bumper and you can pop the latches

No, Tesla Is a newbie to the world of releasing new car models to the public. They didn't even stop to think that emergency responders might need access to the passengers until you posted it right here! Now that they know there is a problem, I'm sure they will get right on it. Thank you for your astute observations. Have you considered a job at Tesla?

Ya'll never heard of a sparkplug before? Just toss a chunk of porcelain at it.

What’s a spark plug? Electric car guys here.
LOL. Spark plugs are electric...

Not needed on an EV though. Unless to start up a campfire or something. Plasma torch would probably work better though.
