Yes, a hydraulic car jack can be safe to use when operated correctly and maintained properly. It's important to ensure that the jack is rated for the weight of the vehicle and to use it on a stable, level surface. Always use jack stands for added safety after lifting the vehicle, as hydraulic jacks can fail over time or lose pressure. Regular inspection and maintenance of the jack can also enhance its safety.
