Default Auto lock after a certain mph

Alot of new cars have this feature here once you hit a certain mph (5-10 usually), it automatically locks your doors. I like this feature and I was wondering if anyone knew if there are any alarms out there that do this when connected to a power door lock relay for keyless entry? I assume it would some how have to be connected to your speed sensor or something in order to work properly? And yes, I know I could always just lock my doors myself but I like this feature better.

You might be able to pull that off with a window switch and some interesting wiring?

I find that feature one of the most annoying on new/newer cars.

I don't understand what it's meant to do? Keep people from carjacking you on the interstate?

Well of course.



If you unlock the door and don't open it then it relocks them again on my Gen Coupe. Rather annoying sometimes.

I think it's for accidents, so the door doesn't fly open on you when you pull 100 G's in a head on. Same with the auto window up when certain cars sense an accident coming.
