KHTS follows City, Sheriff's department role in earthquake drill.
At 10:15 a.m. Thursday, people across the state turned in to actors. During the Great California Shakeout, the largest simulated earthquake drill in U.S. history, nearly seven million people were driven under their desks to "drop, cover and hold." The technique offers protection against flying objects during an earthquake, advising users to get underneath a desk or table, cover their heads and "hold on".
