There is no doubt it would exceed RF exposure limits (which have never 
been proven to be worth while and are set to several times the level 
considered to still be safe.)

With a mobile whip efficency, the radiated power (field intensity) is 
most likely far less than what you get from a 5W HT with a rubber duck 
antenna on 2-meters and on 20 meters the RF has far less effect than on 
2-meters.

It would probably even depend on the part of the antenna you touched.
