What If You Meet A Tornado On The Road?

May 17, 2025

If you’re traveling on the road and have to drive through severe weather, do you know what to do? Meteorologist Alex Wilson gives advice on how to handle this tricky situation. Traveling in windy situations in high-profile vehicles is a no-go since they can be blown over very easily, but even shorter vehicles can be swept off the road and overturned. If you encounter a tornado, get out of your vehicle and find a low spot like a ditch. Cover your head and your children and wait out the storm. Under no circumstances is it safe to take shelter under an overpass.
