i don't think any of these answers answered the question well.  if i were out on a highway and nothing around close enough to get to it before the tornado gets to me, i'd still stay in the bus versus lying on the ground in a ditch.

i'd pull some stuff out of the front bay, climb in, and close the door behind me.  got to be the most protected area.  if it rolled, still nothing in there heavy enough to crush me or cause any issue.  and doors to get hit by debris first.

we had one go pretty close over our heads, but fortunately not touch down in S. Florida.  By the time we noticed, it was too late to do any thing but wait and pray.  the bus was rockin quite a bit, but no issues.  that's when i started thinking about a safe zone.
