Stay Safe During an Earthquake
Your safety is the top priority. In the event of an earthquake, remember these three key steps:
DROP – Get down on your hands and knees to prevent being knocked over.
COVER – Take cover under a sturdy piece of furniture, or cover your head and neck with your arms.
HOLD ON– Hold on to your shelter until the shaking stops.
If you're outside, move away from buildings, streetlights, and anything that could fall. If you're driving, pull over safely and stay in the vehicle.
After the shaking stops, check yourself and others for injuries, and be cautious of aftershocks. Stay informed through official emergency channels.
**Stay calm. Stay alert. Stay safe.**
