I think these are all good, relevant comments. If a complete novice happens upon this thread any of these points may be the one to save them from endangering themselves. Good points made by all.

But there is a higher polar of moment being that the car is 6 feet off the ground, which is more dangerous in an earthquake. On stands the car is 18" off the ground.
