Smoothed rear door handles
#38
Sorry to drag up old topics but de-locked and de-handled cars although they look nice are dangerous end of.

The reason I say this: My uncle was a firefighter a few years back and when he'd completed his initial training he had probably been in the job a few weeks when a Saxo that had been smoothed left the road and turned upside down in a ditch, luckily somebody saw the car leave the road as it had just overtook them the person stopped called emergency services and tried to get the person out but couldn't find the door handle, driver was unconscious so couldn't point them in the general direction of the popper. My uncle got there as a crew to free the occupant of the vehicle but by the time he had gotten there spilled fuel had caught fire and the car was ablaze. He wasn't long out of training and his first RTA he had the gruesome task of dragging the charred corpse of a 20 year old out of his once pride and joy.

And why, because it's "The in-thing" do what you must but if you think anything of your rear seat passengers or yourself for that matter, at least have a sticker that points to the location of the popper to make it easier for people should the worst happen.
