Stay Safe: AccuWeather's Crucial Advice on Power Line Accidents
State College, PA, May 14, 2025 -- AccuWeather released a video outlining safety procedures when power lines fall on a vehicle. Meteorologist Geoff Cornish emphasizes staying in the car unless it's on fire. If a fire occurs, he advises carefully exiting, touching only plastic parts to avoid electrocution, and shuffling away. "If you step out, you could be electrocuted," Cornish warns. The video's practical advice and clear visuals make it a valuable public safety resource. The video's popularity (over 1000 views in less than a day) underscores the public's interest in such information. The information is easily summarized and adapted for a wider audience.
