Have you tried to Stick your hand in the handle?

Im pretty sure the car will recognize the key fob and unlock the doors.

call the cops, they'll unlock it for you
american cops are the shizz.. i took a trip down to michigan one time, locked the keys in the trunk.. anyways, we were told to call the cops, cause apparently they can unlock cars.. and yeah, the cop actually did it for us (Y)

This is the reason why I always keep the key fob in my jeans pocket..... You just never know when the car will lock up by itself.....

If the battery is weak, its possible to lock your keys inside the car.

I do the same. Keys never leave the pocket.

its funny... when I drove my moms RX, I tried to open the door but it wouldn't open... then I realized after about 10 seconds that i actually had to get the key out

I am a locksmith.Whoever goes out should be able to get in.They are not too hard to get into.The only thing that makes them hard to open is that once you unlock the door the alarm will go off and the car will relock itself.
