The 3 Most Important Things to Do if There Is An Earthquake In San Diego
San Diego recently felt the shake, rattle, and roll of one of the biggest earthquakes to hit Southern California ever. After talking to a few friends, I realized that I had no idea what to do during an earthquake, and neither did they. Here are some tips.
1. If you are indoors STAY THERE. If there is a table that you can get under until the shaking stops, that is even better. Look out for falling objects or for for anything that may shatter. If there is no table, get into a corner.
2. If you are outdoors, get as far away from buildings as you can. The same goes for walls of any sort, trees, or poles.
3. If you are in your car, stop. Stay there until the shaking stops, but be sure to be away from poles and trees, and do not stop on overpasses or bridges.
