Warning signs, eyeballs, reading, and common sense are sufficient most of the time.
- snvzz 1y ago"Most of the time" is not good enough. Door should only open if no metals detected.
- wtcactus 1y agoWhy though? Why are we going to force society to spend hundreds of millions of dollars in equipment, wasted time and personal costs, to avoid a one in a million possibility that someone not caring about clear warning signs gets injured?
- snvzz 1y agoIf your argument is money, you are overlooking that a metal detector is really cheap, a practically invisible cost when next to that of the MRI machine. Thus, it makes sense for regulations to mandate such a life-saving metal detector.
- wtcactus 1y agoIt's money, wasted time, and more personnel to guard, handle and fix the metal detector. I think we have way too many regulations as it is, and it's bringing society as a hole down.

- userbinator 1y agoI can easily recall the warning signs for flammable, explosive, poison, and most people I suspect would also be able to recognise the radiation one despite that being the least likely material they'll be handling, but none immediately comes to mind for "dangerously powerful magnet".
- jayd16 1y agoClearly not. Feels like you'd want a metal detector tied to a door lock.
