1. A vehicle comprising:
- a frame, a door;
an arm including a plurality of valleys and configured to slide through upper and lower rollers biased against the arm when the door rotates;
upper and lower stoppers configured to, upon activation, compress the upper and lower rollers against the arm, thus stopping rotation of the door; and
sensors, processor(s) configured to;
activate and deactivate the stoppers based on sensed events.
