Doing a quick Google search he comes up to be quite controversial. Some of what he says makes sense. Getting next to your car as apposed to being in your car for instance. The Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989 collapsed the Embarcadero/Cypress Freeway crushing people in their cars. In most cases there was a 1-2' space where someone just outside of the car would have survived. Then again the odds of being in that situation and reacting that fast are pretty slim.









This was your fate if you stayed in your car and you were on these fallen portions of the freeway.
