    Anything more than 110 I leave to someone else.

    But most forget how dangerous DC voltage can be just because its 12v.

    Never been told the "One hand in the pocket".

    But I know the plumbing lesson.

    Keep you mouth closed, and don't chew your finger nails!

    The one hand in the pocket is so if you do get shocked it doesn't go across your heart.

    We had a maintenance guy that didn't follow this and took a direct hit.....it blowed the side out of his finger coming back out. Surprisingly he lived but I'm sure he did some damage.

    One of our central maintenance trouble shooters was servicing a sub station and thought he had the power off....blew up a transformer when he shorted it across to discharge it. He got burnt pretty bad......never came back to work.

    Did you see that happen? How did the pick up end up on top of the white car?
    Hopefully nobody was seriously injured... looks like nobody died...

    Given the way traffic is through here I couldn't explicitly see it but it appears that rush hour traffic stopped and the car didn't.

    Got 3 meat wagons on scene so may not be too good.

    The white car was not hit from behind.. still, the black pick up has rear damage and ended up on top of it... And it seems there are more vehicles ahead involved in the accident...:scratch:

    Possibly another truck and small suv in front but I'm not sure. I can't see from where I sit.

    The car hit the back of the black pickup and ran up under it. The car was definitely moving faster than they should have been
