I agree. I'm going to assume that Josh isn't joshing us (ha!) and suspect that the woman just didn't know how to unlock the doors. I've never heard of a car that couldn't be unlocked from inside. Of course, a lot of cars have "child locks" on the back doors that can't be unlocked from the back seats, but I think even they can be unlocked with a front-seat button. And the front doors can certainly be unlocked from inside.

I mean, they're talking about requiring manual levers in trunks so that kidnappers can't lock somebody in the trunk. I just can't believe it's possible to lock somebody in the main body of the car.

This kind of reminds me of the story of the woman who was upset because the battery in her vehicle remote died and she couldn't unlock the doors. She was wondering if the store a ways down the street would be able to replace the battery, and somebody took her keys and used the actual key to unlock the door and said, "Why don't you drive down there and find out?"
