The Tesla owner said getting stuck in his driveway was "annoying as hell," and he tried everything from hosing the car down to jumping the battery.

Battery dies, car doesn't work right. How is this news?

Compared to the car's main battery pack, the 12v battery is like a couple AAs. It's dumb that it couldn't use power from the main pack to unlock the car.
