Exactly! People who live in tornado country should know to never ever be in their vehicles during a tornado warning, whether you are on the road or at home. The caller has a basement (as Duchess of Gadsden notes!) so he and his family should use it! If they want a radio, they should have a portable weather radio from NOAA that will tell them about tornado warnings and have batteries so that they can use it in the basement.
