[Kiwi8]

Make sure u lock the bonnet down before driving, it could be very costly if u didn't.

 

[zzzzzzz]

very dengerous to jammed brake like that should stop normally instead

 

[GreatPumpkin]

Usually the car console should give warning

Maybe not his fault, but the workshop. I never touch my own bonnet for years.

 

[Firestorm1978]

Is it a woman driver/owner?

 

[Whimsica]

Think no issue if driver never accelerate

Never use cable tie to secure tightly

 

[randyap]

Bonnet should be made of glass

This model the bonnet is not meant to be opened by consumers one. There is no bonnet release latch like regular cars.

It’s also dangerous to move if u can’t see anything. Imagine if just right a motorcycle cut in and u crash

1 sec ago still driving normally can see got keep safte distance from the car infront, even if sudden cannot see, still will be able to gauge that there is enoguh distance to do a safte normal stop

no reason to jammed the brake so hard until the harzards come on is dengerous behind car if may rear end it if not paying close enought attention or may cause chain collision

 

[niefeng80]

If never close properly sure got alarm "Deng Deng Deng" on the dash board controls one.

Like if you never close ur door properly, your boot never close or your bonnet not closed.

Unless got warning but still bo chup and drive which has a small chance for idiot drivers.

Instincts also plays a part so if everyone keeps a safe distance actually no issue also

There should be secondary lock. Even if drive, the 2nd lock could still hold it in place. Probably problem with the lock.
