Re: Team door handle

[Wolff <wolff_b@ix.netcom.com>]

Wrong! Try this scenario: You and a passenger approach an Audi. You turn
the key in the drivers door handle, central locking starts working on
passenger door lock. Gorilla passenger grabs other door handle hard
before unlock is complete. Presto! You can now investigate the wonderful
strength properties (or lack thereof) of a pot metal door handle. For
drivers side door try this: Impatient driver waiting for passenger with
key who is already in passenger seat (usually SO) to hurry up and open
drivers door from inside. Driver may now grab door handle a split second
too early. At least with this one SO is safely locked in vehicle out of
harms way.
