Our friends @theCara and @supertamsf alerted us to the Quake Quiz SF site, where you’re presented with a choice of scenarios (including at the Transamerica Pyramid and La Taqueria …) and asked what you’d do there when an earthquake hits. The ladies also pointed out the rat on the tracks in the Muni scenario, which, WHAT? This ain’t New York City!
So, in light of Tuesday’s East Coast earthquake, we thought we’d go over the earthquake-preparation basics in case you’re aboard a Muni vehicle when the big one (or even a littler, but nonetheless violent one) strikes.
Somehow, when faced with the multiple choice questions, we resisted choosing, “Keep listening to your music until the train reaches its destination.”

I mean, really. And this is post-quake:

Visit the Quake Quiz SF site, take the quiz, laugh at the rat, and be prepared!

I thought you were supposed to laugh at all the tourists freaking out?

What’s funnier than the rat? The existence of an N Judah train in the tunnel, and it’s not packed!

Really? Rats? Not mice? Tee hee. Seriously though, I’ve never seen them. But I mostly ride buses.

I’ve actually seen a couple on the BART tracks at Powell.

I’ve seen them running down Market Street, from a bus.

I have the worst rodent phobia but haven’t seen them on the bus other than ones that were being kept as pets (wtf why?!). But when I was in NYC in July I saw some huge rats running around. I ran up the stairs so fast my parents thought I was nuts.
