In case you thought cars would become safer as technology developed… rest assured, Tesla is finding newer and ever-dumber ways to make their cars dangerous to occupants (and others).
TL;DR: If you’re in a Tesla and it loses power (like in a fire), the only way to open the doors is often an unlabeled wire behind either two panels or a speaker grill. Tesla owners are DIYing janky rip cords to make that wire easier to pull to escape.
Great question, which also led me to laminated glass

I have a feeling tinting won’t be as much of an issue. If anything, it will keep the shattered glass more held together, but still shatter and weaken it enough to kick out (or for water pressure to do the job for you). I can’t find any videos on a cursory search for tinted windows, though.
I guess something is better than nothing. Tint I feel like is not as powerful as laminated glass. It’s not fused with the glass just a sticker
