What to do during an Earthquake Drop, Cover and Hold On, under a table Stay clear of objects that can fall If you're on the coast, go to higher ground Evacuate after shaking stops Check for gas leaks, running water or other hazards

What NOT to do during an earthquake DO NOT run to other rooms. DO NOT stand in a doorway. You probably won’t be able to stand up if you tried. DO NOT go outside during the quake. Falling objects cause the most injuries DO NOT light a match. Leaking gas is problematic DO NOT move about or kick up dust. Open cabinets cautiously. Objects can fall off shelves.

Mobile Home Safety Tips Replace blocks with solid bracing Replace solid gas line with flexible pipe.
