I was wondering if after a certain year having cars with key holes on all the doors became less popular? My car has 4 doors but only one key hole and that is a pain when I need to park on the side of a busy road and want to enter from the passenger side as to avoid traffic.

I assumed it might have more to do with criminals breaking locks on doors people don't normally use and getting in at later times. I personally keep my remote unlocker hidden in my jacket so I can't lock my keys in my car with the remote with them. Are there any cars that still have all the key holes?
