My best place to find is a parking lot, Depending on the size and the severity of the quake whether it's 10 secs or 20 secs..it's fairly short lived and if there are any car's in the area. Here's why (IMO)...


~most do not have any trees, power lines ect to fall down on top of you

~even a small parking lot can be fairly safe ..

~if the car's transmissions give out and start making cars roll around.. you can avoid them fairly easy.. just must keep your head on a swivel!!!



I ran out of an apt complex in Vancouver WA back in the 2001 in the 6.8 Olympia quake and it was seriously rocking cars like they were toys from 120miles away!!!

I ran out and shouted to get out of the buildings while a lady with a infant STANDS in the doorway of her front door and says.."ohh.. weeeee" as she holds her infant. "hey honey we're having a quake like in San Fran!" I was totally shocked because she does NOT know how deep the quake was, where it was coming from ect.. Then she says something "ohhh that was a small one.. " Like how the hell did she know ?? ! I've always thought ...what if the apt did collapse!

I was in the middle of the parking lot and thank god no cars rolled away just rocked back & forth up and down side-to-side because the transmissions were all in park and held fast.
