You'd get an immediate alternator light as well.

I tend to believe the noise of the belt letting go and the loss of the p/s would give anyone who's got the slightest perception the notice to get the vehicle off the road immediately.

The danger lies where the driver chooses to make "the next exit". Catastrophic.
