Having a power line fall on your car can be one of the scariest things you could ever face while driving. If an active power line falls onto your car, it can charge the car with electricity, meaning that you have to act with extreme caution to avoid getting electrocuted. If your car isn't on fire, call 911 and stay put in your car, being careful not to touch the car's frame. If your car is on fire, exit the car by jumping free of the vehicle without making contact with the metal inside of the car. Then, still holding your legs together, shuffle to safety with both of your feet together on the ground until you’re 50 feet from the car. If you come back to your parked car to see that a power line has fallen on it, call 911 and don't approach it.
