Does the CRV automatically lock doors while driving?

Honda CRV does not have intelligent automatic door locking. The automatic door locking feature will re-engage approximately 15 seconds after remote unlocking if no door is opened. The reason why Dongfeng Honda CRV does not have an automatic locking function is to prevent potential obstruction of timely escape for occupants in case of an accident. Here is additional information: 1. The Honda CRV is a classic urban SUV model produced by Dongfeng Honda. 2. The automatic door locking feature while driving has both advantages and disadvantages. In the absence of accidents, it can prevent passengers from accidentally opening doors or young passengers from inadvertently opening them. However, in the event of an accident, it could become a significant obstacle to timely escape for occupants inside the vehicle, potentially hindering rescue efforts due to the automatic locking feature.
I've been driving a Honda CR-V for several years, and honestly, it does automatically lock the doors while driving. Typically, it activates when the speed exceeds 15 or 20 km/h, which is quite convenient as you don't have to do it manually. This safety feature prevents accidental door openings, especially when there are children in the car, so you don't have to worry about them playing with the door handles. If you buy a new or used one, you can check the central control settings to see if you can customize the speed point. Personally, I prefer setting it faster so the car locks earlier. However, not all model years have this feature; older or lower-spec models might require manual locking. I recommend checking the user manual or trying the button next to the driver's seat to adjust it.
