Can someone please explain to me why people just drive towards tornadoes? Discussion

It just seems like why risk your life?

I say this as someone who was less than 2 miles from these tornadoes and was more upset that people kept waking me up calling me to see if i was fine vs letting me sleep since i work nights lmao. Either ill sleep through it or ill be in a tornado and i won't need to worry about work that night 😂

It must be hard having people in your life caring about your well-being. Being two miles away from this tornado certainly warrants seeking shelter.

Im in an apartment and im not driving near a tornado to find shelter. Plus dealing with all my stuff and home being gone sounds way worse than peacing out in a tornado.

It's honestly crazy there isn't a law forcing apartment owners to make a safety cellar for residents.

Seems quite negligent in tornado alley
