Before practice my friend asked if I would take a look at a new addition to his car. He had inserted "pimp out" lights the night before and wanted me to check it out. I accepted his request and sat down in the driver’s seat staring down at the lights-- which were located near the bottom of the floor to the left of the sterring wheel. Seconds later the car began to smoke. Supposedly the wire had short circuited. He explained that he had installed the lights the night before, connecting the wires to the engines rather than the fuse box in a rushed manner. When the engine overheated, the wires in result melted, thus causing the smoke. With my fear of electricity, this is the worst that could happen to me.
Is it possible electric shock could result from such an incident?
