Are those his initials? Why not call him "the perp"?

Door open + no seatbelt + movement starts = always slam into P in my past experience.
I don’t use Creep, it would do it on accelerator press. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯That is exactly what I thought too. But it only does it when you drift (creep) forward. I have creep mode on. If you press the accelerator it does not go into park.
All seems quite unsafe. I would be fine with it going automatically into park (and more importantly, refusing to enter drive) with a much broader set of conditions....like the ones in the Owner's Manual.

I wouldn’t know, I drive an eee-vee, gramps.Does make some sense. And here I was, thinking that Creep mode was slightly safer.

That sounds great doesn't it. But you ignore that things like guns, electrical outlets and especially cars are easy to make safe. A gun should never be outside of the gun safe if it isn't being used or maintained. Electrical outlets now have guards to keep kids from poking stuff into them. Cars, for the most part, require a key to operate. There's the issue. Is it safe enough for the key to be something you can so easily leave in the car? I often forget and leave my phone in the car, but then it's not my key. I keep the fob in my pocket.
Exactly.. I don't own a model S, but have a model 3. A child could not move my car. Maybe two children, one to push the brake peddle, the other to put the car in drive, and then the first child would need to release the brake and push the accelerator. My Model 3 won't move unless on a hill, or accelerator is pushed. No creep mode. No older card require anything, and if running you can just put them into drive, so a child could definitely drive the car just by moving a column shift lever. This has nothing to do with Tesla.Holding the brake pedal while engaging drive/reverse isn't enough?
You are wrong. Someone call CPS on this guy ^^^Exactly.. I don't own a model S, but have a model 3. A child could not move my car.

Ummmm NO No creep mode on mine thank you. And my point is you have to push the brake in my Tesla or it won't go anywhere....Sounds like you might not have been following along. You should put your vehicle in creep mode and try it! Do it with the phone outside the car (close by of course). I was surprised at the results (they directly contradict a lot of what Tesla says in the Owner's Manual)! Or perhaps we should call CPS on all parents who use their cars in creep mode? Shame on them?
Do perform any testing in a safe location, of course. No need to crash into anything.
You are wrong. Someone call CPS on this guy ^^^
A key is not required to be in the car, the car does not have to be turned on, and weight does not have to be in the seat. It sounds like you are not properly securing your car.
This does not seem to be the case in other manufacturer's "keyless" systems.
Yes and apparently a 2 year old can do this.Tesla requires the brake peddle to be pressed before the car will go into drive.
And do what outside my car with my phone?
And my point is you have to push the brake in my Tesla or it won't go anywhere....
brake peddle
Noted. Bad spelling. My point was just that many cars could have this issue. Either way, sad that someone was injured.Leave your phone outside your car, get in, and start your car. Do it with the door open, your seat belt off, and your weight not on the driver's seat. It'll start and go just fine (if you are in creep mode and you press the accelerator). That was my experience. Don't hurt yourself (or your car); this is a very dangerous test.
Yes, this is not that difficult for a bold and rebellious 2-year-old; it has been discussed earlier.
Tesla peddles pedals, not peddles.
They can call, the only child I have is my 2 month old Tesla Model 3Yes and apparently a 2 year old can do this.
It really sounds like you might not be properly securing your Model 3. Watch out or people in this thread will call CPS on you.

whether or not a child (2 year old) can get in my Tesla and get it to go anywhere.
They could but they don't. That's what the lawsuit is claiming and it appears to be true. There have been many incidents with older generation "keyless" systems which is why they have so many safety interlocks now.My point was just that many cars could have this issue. Either way, sad that someone was injured.
All Xs close driver door when pressing the brake. Premium unlocks self opening door upon approach as well as front doors opening with key fob. The notes said brake was pressed which closed the driver's door, pretty much saying the driver's door was open. Easy to climb in and I could imagine the kid pressing all the buttons and pedals.
