ABSTRACT:
An outside door handle assembly for actuating a door latch mechanism of vehicle doors, comprising a base member secured to the vehicle door, lever means pivotally mounted upon the base member and operably connected to the door latch mechanism, a manually operable handle member pivotally mounted upon the lever means, and locking means normally locking the handle member to the base member, characterized in that the handle assembly is rotated in a door opening direction only when the handle member is initially operated, so that an undesired door opening, such as, for example, due to the force of inertia from an automobile collision at the door location, can be prevented.
