    This should be illegal but US regulators seem to be absolutely toothless

    also seems incredibly stupid to specifically make the rear doors not work when they could've just made them work the same as the front

      I want to give the regulators the benefit of the doubt by saying that it's possible they just couldn't imagine that someone would actually design a door handle system this stupid.

      Seriously if someone ever offers me a ride and their car is one of these death traps I'm going to laugh at them and tell them to fuck off.

    trunks and any enclosed space big enough to fit a person in must have visible door-releases (commonly said to be about anti-kidnapping, but more likely so that some kid wouldn't trap themselves in a trunk and freeze or overheat to death).

    There's more rules about being able to exit the trunk than exit the cabin.
