Most service techs turn off the car (ICE) before working on it. So it's usually very clear if your hand can be caught by a fan belt or not (and not deadly if it is). When turned off and 12v battery disconnected, a car is pretty darn safe.
Are you sure you can sense high voltage / high amperage as well?
- lowbloodsugar 5y agoGreat story from my mechanic about how that one time they started a diesel and couldn't get it to stop. They even tried throwing rags into the intake. Then there was that time I had a rusty gas tank that we discovered when it leaked gasoline all over the shop till we got a drum under it. Or that time my car fell of its jacks (don't ask) and nearly broke both my legs.
