The video shows that all the doors of the Lexus LM were locked after the accident, and the people in the car could not escape normally. Drivers passing by got out of the car to rescue people trapped in the car. A truck driver used a steel pipe to continuously pry the co-driver's door but failed to open it. Finally, passers-by rescued the passenger from the co-driver through a broken window, and the driver of the main driver was also successfully rescued.

When passers-by rescued two passengers and asked if there were any people in the car, they found that there was another passenger in the back of the car, but the rear and side doors still could not be opened. Passers-by tried to rescue the rear passengers by smashing the windows and getting into the car. But then the front of the car began to catch fire and passers-by had to stay away from the scene, and the video was interrupted. Another video shows that the Lexus LM was eventually burned, and whether the rear passengers were rescued safely will have to wait for official notification.

If it is not locked, the people in the car should be able to escape on their own, but passers-by have tried to open the door many times without success. It is understood that Lexus LM description has a detailed description: "if the SRS airbag unlocks, all doors will be unlocked", "if the vehicle is subjected to a strong impact, all doors will be unlocked, but depending on the strength of the impact or the type of accident, the system may not work."

It is worth noting that in January 2021, the car understanding emperor conducted a crash test of Carola against the speed of the collision, and the car door could not be unlocked automatically after the collision. Some netizens pointed out that the main driving side of the Toyota model has a switch to disconnect the electric door, press this button and then open the door may open, but many car owners do not know this button.
