ABSTRACT:
In event of a collision accident involving a motor vehicle having electric window regulators and power door locks, automatic and immediate door unlocking and window roll-down occurs to aid in passenger egress and emergency medical personnel access without a critical loss of time which might otherwise result in additional passenger injury and risk for the medical personnel. The electrically regulated windows may also be activated whereby their roll-down may be accomplished by operating an exterior door release handle subsequent to an accident, in lieu of automatic roll-down. Motor vehicles having inside door latch disablement setting devices, such as "child protection locks" are also "unlocked" to enable door release by a passenger from inside of the vehicle to avoid dangerous entrapment of the passenger within the damaged vehicle.
