Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Is it common for doors and windows not to work in this situation or is this just Tesla being a death machine?
For most cars the windows will work for 30-60 seconds after being in the water. The doors will not open due to the water pressure from the outside.
If you should ever find yourself in a car in the water:
addendum: if you have doors that you can open via a handle on the inside, so non-tesla doors basically, you will be able to open the door once the car is sufficiently submerged, as inside and outside pressure will be equalized. Anyone in a Tesla is fucked though because those doors open electronically via button cuz that's cool. As far as I know at least, I will never enter one of those death machines.
Yeah, although waiting and trying the door should always be a last resort. Because if they don't open, you're fucked.
Oh yes agreed. This is more a "try this as a last resort" thing. Ideally, you just roll the window down and get out that way.
