I know Ford Rangers were like this, friend had a 90's model and his little bratty kid once just grabbed the door handle with it locked and the door flies open.
OK....thanks for clarificaton. Perhaps the double-pull requirement on the inside handle managed to meet the letter of the Federal non-override law.....but, I agree, certainly not the spirit of the law.
