• If you see a downed power line, immediately call 9-1-1.
  • Consider all downed power lines and anything touching them as energized and dangerous! Keep everyone at least 35 feet away and immediately report the problem to UPPCO.
  • If a power line falls across a car that you’re in, stay in the car and call 911. If you must get out of the car due to a fire, or other immediate danger, jump clear of the car, stop touching the car, and land on both feet. Be sure that no part of your body is touching the car when your feet touch the ground.
