    I was riding in the front of my old boss’ model 3 and immediately just used the emergency unlock rather than the button. He said he didn’t even know about that.

    It definitely seemed like a pretty intuitive location.

      Yeah that’s more of a problem that people tend to use the emergency release because it’s a physical handle and seems familiar. The manual used to even warn against using it (it didn’t drop the side window, risking damage… I think that was fixed a while ago though).
