Suicide Doors: Break On Through

In the cars of today, doors seem to come in every way possible. There are the more conventional ones that open normally' (towards the front of the car). Then there are others that slide along next to the car's frame, especially relevant in van-type scenarios. Those lucky enough to be able to afford James Bond-type expensive cars can revel in the fact that their doors open skyward. Then there are suicide doors', so-called due to the deadly consequences when they open spontaneously during transit when they were first developed. This is especially at speeds beyond that we travel whilst grandma is driving - and let's face it, that includes just about everyone.

Funnily enough, they are a rare occurrence in motor vehicle manufacturing today - that is, unless keen enthusiasts have modified their method of transport. Put simply, suicide doors do not open towards the front of the car but, rather awkwardly-looking, towards the back. As with most physical phenomena, there are certainly scientific explanations as to why they can be dangerous - but as with most things in life, it is just easier to accept that they are, saving us the stress of trying to understand it all. The question then becomes: why would you want to modify your car to include such a hazard?

It is all really about the driver. While they may pose problems for the passengers when it comes to exiting the vehicle, it is in actual fact a whole lot more convenient for the driver. The door simply does not create an obstacle for the driver when walking towards it, and then turning to sit within it. When they get out of the car, the movement is also not hindered as they can step out in a forward direction. Kinda makes sense, if you can picture it in your head.

Of course, clever designs of late have meant that the problems encountered in the past have been overcome. Some models have both the rear and front doors partially covering each other, preventing the back door from breaking free. Others have cleverly-designed mechanisms that keep the door locked while the car's moving. Consequently they are now a decision that has to be made when amending your own car. Many car places sell kits that will serve the purpose perfectly. You can also try it yourself, but it does require you to be handy with cutting and welding. You will also have to really know the structure of your car.

It is quite fitting that car companies that incorporate them into their designs are slowly replacing the use of the term suicide doors', as they really do not deserve the negative connotations that come with this practical idea
