My Chrysler T&C has a radio enabled key such that the car senses its
presence. The car's "lock-all-doors" switch on the driver's and
passenger's doors will operate with you standing outside the car with
the door open. A day or two ago I posted a question (to self really)
whether the locks would behave any differently if the key was outside
its short radio range. No, the car doesn't care. It will still lock
the doors. But it does do it instantly and audibly so it would still be
difficult for you to lock yourself out accidentally.
