You Don't Say


Car vs Tornado
From Firehouse.com:
Tornadoes Not Motorist-Friendly, Says Mo. Fire Chief  
Vehicles and tornadoes do not mix, Fire Chief Phil Johnston told the City Council during the meeting Monday at the Municipal Center, 200 S. Holden St.
During a discussion about emergency management recommendations, Councilman Baird Brock asked about people getting into their vehicles prior to a tornado. He asked because a Moore, Okla., TV meteorologist told his audience to get into their vehicles and flee an approaching tornado that later caused 24 deaths and widespread damage to Moore. KFOR meteorologist Mike Morgan took heat after the report due to giving unsound safety advice that resulted in traffic jams.  http://www.firehouse.com/news/10977076/tornadoes-not-motorist-friendly-says-warrensburg-mo-fire-chief
I've been through a tornado, an F-1, and it was scary as hell and I was in a heavy Lincoln Town car.
No, it's not a good idea to be a tornado while in a car o truck. 
And people need to be told about that?
