Tornado

Texas averages 125 tornadoes every year- more than any other state. Oklahoma comes in second with an average of 57 per year.

Barrels

All types of chemicals are riding down our highways and railroads—ant killer, anti-freeze, shower cleaner and even biological and nuclear waste (think about that next time you’re tailgating a big rig or racing a train to the crossing).

Evacuating Car

In certain emergencies, you’ll be faced with the decision of whether you should stay put or get away. Local authorities may or may not immediately be able to provide information on what’s happening and what you should do. It’s your responsibility to gather as much information as possible and use common sense in making a decision.
