I can think of only a few situations where you'd want to get out of a car quickly, where you'd have enough time to look under all the matte covers to find a manual door release switch that may or may not be installed. A fire is certainly not one of them. At the very least shouldn't they be equipped with a Nothammer...?

Hammers aren't ideal, they take force, knowing how to strike, they could shatter glass in your eye.

All of this shit is easily avoided by a fucking handle on the fucking door.
