so how does that work with a child lock then? I haven't checked anything yet but if the kids can simply pull twice and jump out too.... that would be a bad thing.

I dont even know how to turn it on or off, is it connected to the rear window button blocking through the buttons front drivers' side? or mechanical in the door itself like older cars
Does the double pull thing work with the back doors? Sorry I have no experience of sitting in the back of my car.

I guess they had a problem with germans falling out of cars?

The double pull thing is purely mechanical within the door itself. The first pull unlocks the door, the second pull opens it.

The child locks are still mechanical also, I haven't tried it either, but I suspect the pull that opens the door wont actually work, just as it wouldn't on a conventional child lock system.

Correct. The child lock completely disables the door from being opened from the inside, regardless of how many times the handle is pulled...
