I'm watching Doorbell cam videos and the first
thing the bears do is go for the car door handles.
How do they know about door handles?

They learn that works. So do some dogs

So they've each done this before. If I lived where there are bears, I
guess I'd lock my car door. And my house door.

If they want in, they can push the window to the breaking point. Here,

So maybe it's better to be unlocked and let them use the handle. They
have bears in W. Virginia, not too far from me. Next spring I'll check
with them. You can't get Covid from a bear, I hope.

we have only the Black Bear but they are still very dangerous at times.

You don't want a bear inside your car! There are a few news articles about them
ripping the interiors apart to find food or get out. Don't bait them they love
sweets like donuts. Save the donuts for the cops...
