How to Open the Car Door from the Back Seat?

Ask the driver to help observe the rear traffic situation from the left rearview mirror to confirm safety. Below is relevant information about opening car doors: 1. Two-stage door opening method: The driver or passenger, after ensuring the surrounding area is safe, first opens the door slightly to create a small gap, then turns their head to check the rear situation. If confirmed safe, they can then fully push the door open to exit. 2. Dutch Reach method: Use the hand farthest from the door to open it. This naturally turns the upper body, head, and shoulders outward, making it easier to see the parking situation, effectively preventing 'dooring' accidents.
As a car enthusiast, I'd like to share key points about opening car doors. For rear seat passengers, it's straightforward: simply pull the interior door handle, usually a silver or plastic lever, inward to unlock and open the door. In most vehicles, if the door is locked, you'll need to first press the unlock button on the central console or have the driver unlock it via the key. Don't forget about the child safety lock feature - this switch is hidden along the door frame edge. When engaged, it deactivates the interior handle to prevent children from accidentally opening doors while driving; I always remind myself to enable it when carrying kids and disable when parked. If a door won't open, check if the child lock is engaged or if the handle is stuck, adjusting its position if necessary. Safety first - always ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before opening doors to avoid collision risks.
