Motor homes and earth quakes.
We are headed for Bakersfield with our 40 ft. Newmar in a few days and they have experienced some strong quakes in that are in the past couple days. Has anyone had any experience with earth quakes?

With floods, tornados, hurricanes and earthquakes, if we thought like that our RV's would never leave the driveway.
In my defense, the reason I give this a thought is experience. Hauling a load of supplies into disaster areas for Red Cross, I give some thought to how I can reduce the odds my name shows up on a victim list. For example, I carry plenty of food/water for myself, and make sure I have fuel to get out of area.

We are going because we need to attend a funeral of a family member, otherwise forget it. Be there a couple days.
Sorry for your loss.

Well, I'm not real well educated, but it is my understanding that some of the fault lines run for many miles. And some places have said there is a possibility the recent quakes may have added stress to other fault lines. Say one bridge is closed, traffic diverted to others. Any non-essential traffic is going to add non-essential stress to infrastructure.
