also honda far back as i can remember have a no lock out safety thing so you cant lock your self out with the keys in it unless you locked the drivers door then got out the passenger side
you sortof are correct but there is a way around it. if you pull in the inside doorhandle you can lock the door while it is open thus rendering there no lock out feature useless. i owened a honda for 3 years before i learned of thes trick. the way to lock the door is hold interior handle out and lock door now the door is locked and you can lock your keys in your car
