Why Drop, Cover, and Hold On? Buildings rarely collapse in California Most people are injured by things falling on them, or when trying to move Get under something to be safe!

Skip the Myths DO NOT get in a doorway! –It does not protect you from falling items –In strong shaking you can not stand DO NOT believe the “triangle of life”! –You are safer under (not next to) a table – explains whywww.dropcoverholdon.org

Don’t Move Somewhere Else If inside, stay inside! If outside, stay outside!

Drop to the floor -Before the earthquake drops you! Take Cover -Under a sturdy desk or table -Or cover your head with your arms Hold On firmly -Be ready to move with it until the shaking stops Protect Yourself During Earthquakes
