What to do during an earthquake?
Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware of which earthquakes are early warning tremors and which may be followed by a larger one. Slowly limit your movement to a few steps to reach a safe place nearby and stay indoors when the tremors stop until you are sure it is safe to go out.
If you are indoors
If you are indoors, crouch down, take cover under a sturdy table or piece of furniture, or hold on tightly to something until the tremors stop. If you don't have a table or desk, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch in a corner of the building.
Protect yourself by hiding under the lintel of an internal door, in the corner of a room, under a table, or even a bed.
Stay away from lead, windows, doors and walls, or anything that could fall (such as lighting fixtures or furniture).
If you are outdoors
If you are outdoors, don't move from where you are. Also, stay away from buildings, trees, street lights, and power/telephone wires.
If you are in an open space, stay put until the tremors stop. The greatest danger is outside the building, near exits and its outer walls. Most earthquake-related accidents are caused by collapsing walls, shattered glass, and falling objects.
If in a moving vehicle
Stop the vehicle as quickly as possible and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses, power/telephone wires, etc.
Move cautiously after the earthquake stops or avoid roads, bridges, and ramps that may have been damaged by the earthquake.
