You can't always out run a tornado. The Joplin tornado turned formed in like 5 mins.
The missus mentioned that surely it should be a basic planning requirement in areas that suffer big tornado's to have some sort of shelter suitable even if its a group shelter between several houses and a cheap thing would probably be a simple hole with a well secured set of doors costing not a lot
