The Car 
 
 
 
Good Choice! 
If you are traveling in a car when you see lightning, stay in your car. Automobiles offer excellent lightning protection. 

If you're on a lawn mower or tractor, stop your work and get off. Tractors, lawn mowers, or other metal equipment in contact with the ground attract lightning better than other objects and are often hit.
