I owned a garage door company,installed garage doors and automatic openers
for over 10 years. My advice to owners was always "Watch the door go down,that way you know that it went all the way to the floor".The safety reverse should engage if anything gets in the way of the door going down.
I have replaced many,many garage doors that had the opener/closer clutch system adjusted too tight, causing it to override the safety reverse and destroyed the door.
I have seen pets that have been injured by the door.That door is a large machine when connected to an automatic opener/closer,I would not advise closing the door when you can not see it.
