Question:
E.g. Is it safe to stay under trees, or get in a car, or running, or just staying in the same place? Is it safe to speak on the mobile phone, or keep an umbrella, or keep in hands something made by steel? etc.
Answers:
What would you do in a situation like this?
First, this question is in the wrong category.Second, in some cases it is much safer to stand under a tree. For example, if you're out riding your bike in a forested area, it would be foolish for you to remain out in the open on the trail; get yourself into the trees.
Is there a seatbelt Recall for vehicles with RCF-67 clips? (mine is a 91 Buick Park Avenue)?
However, if you're riding or walking through a field and there are few trees around, stay away from what trees there are and get on the ground to make yourself as low and as small as possible.
why is the word 'ambulance' always written backwards (frm left to right) on ambulances?
If you have access to an automobile, get inside. It's the safest place to be, aside from in a structure.
Holding any metal would be begging for death, so get away from your bike, your baseball bat, your golf clubs, your hunting rifle, etc.
If a parent gets in an auto accident while taking kids to school, can the parents sue the school?
Don't get on your cell phone. And if you're indoors, don't even get on a regular telephone, as a lightning strike to a phone line can travel through the line and into your phone and then into you.
Should we carry a fire extinguisher in our cars?
Most important in all of this is to know when to get out of danger's way. Don't wait for the lightning. By then it may already bee too late. When you hear thunder is the time to seek safety.
who has the right of way legally, the one turn left or turn right?
no dont stand under trees...or hold umbrella...the best is to go next to a high buildin cos lightnin strikes wtever is highest or get inside a car but dont touch any metal...also u could crouch down in the ground in a kinda 'foetus' position with, i think, only ur toes touching the ground (if u hav rubber soles) ^_^First off, never stand under a tree! Something tall like that will attract lightning. The best thing to do is get in a car.If lightning hits the car, the rubber tires will absorb the shock and no one will get hurt. I don't know about talking on the phone, I wouldn't do it but I'm not sure.Umbrellas wouldn't help, but probably wouldn't be unsafe.
It is perfectly safe to stand under a tree, You have the power of the Lord on your side. In fact, You can also hold a really long metal rod and point it at the sky and say "C'mon lightning, You can't touch me cause I'm a child of God." Trust me, you will be perfectly fine.
