There are hundreds of amps available from a car battery. Ever notice you
don't get electrocuted when you touch both terminals? It's the same

thing.

Mostly, you don't get electrocuted from a car battery because it's DC.


You have a very strange concept of electricity.
I wonder where you get these ideas.

You don't get electrocuted from a car battery because it's
only 12 volts, which isn't enough in most conditions to push
the needed few milliamperes through your body to electrocute
you.
