netherlands - A family survives a lightning strike on their car in the Netherlands. Learn about lightning safety in vehicles and near trees.

Family Survives Lightning Strike

Local police released photos of the shocked family's Ford, showing significant damage. Bumper torn off and roof dented. Family initially thought they were being shot at.

In the Netherlands, car lightning strikes are rare. Lightning hits the country or buildings 200,000 times annually. Cars act as Faraday cages, directing the current to the ground.

A Faraday cage, named after Michael Faraday, shields from electric fields. Driving into a guardrail to discharge a car is a myth.

Stay away from trees during lightning strikes. Branches and wood pieces can be thrown up to 400 meters away.

Impact on Vehicles:

  • Lightning strike damage on a car.
