Folks should take a look at theirs, should be code in many places. Can't hurt to run a cable or even check to make sure things look secure where the springs hook up. It's so easy to overlook a garage door, but would not want to be in the way if a spring went flying, much less our cars. One of my spring cables actually came loose somehow, and nicely jammed itself along a pulley. Talk about a pain, but made me pay more attention to those things.

Here in Los Angeles county it must be code to have a steel cable inside the spring because that's all Home Depot carries, IIRC.
Yes, I installed those after a friend's broke and damaged his car.

Springs SHOULD have a cable run thru them and secured on both ends of the
spring, just in case 1 does cut loose. Lucky you!
