Action that Must be Taken When in a Vehicle

  • Never attempt to outrun a tornado.
  • If you have the time get to a well constructed building. Move into the interior or basement of the building away from windows and doors.
  • If there is no well constructed building available:
    • Get out of your vehicle
    • Do not get under your vehicle
    • Look for ditch or low-lying area (preferably without water) and get into the protective position with hands over the head.
