No panic button?

How does one invoke a panic function (honking and flashing lights) like one would by pressing the red button on the key fob of other cars?

Also, it snowed and frosted today and I noticed there is no way to heat the LED headlight lens. Does Model 3 have a heat element that defrosts the headlight lens from being frosted which reduces visibility at night?

Nope. I don't think it has a panic function either - at least I've not found it.
 
There are two separate buttons on the app for flash and honk and they both only beep/flash once. I was hoping for a button or quick launch shortcut that would activate panic function to keep beeping and honking at the mothaf** that is trying to invade my space.

This is a whole level of cold that makes me a little less disturbed by the ridiculous cost of living in Southern California.

My sympathies for your weather challenges.
