As I drive along the central locking activates and I'm locked in, when I open the door, or operate the door lock switch, they unlock. Not a problem unless of course I'm unconciouse after an accident and rescuers can't get me out! I have also had two occurences of a flat battery after being stationary with the radio on, maybe the two are linked?
This is not a fault.
It is to stop anyone jumping in the car with you when you are stopped, at traffic lights etc.
It activates when you reach 10mph.
Don't worry about the emergency services - they have big hammers.
