Lightning always takes the path of least resistance. A tree is tall and easily conducts electricity. A car will protect you because the lightning will travel through the car (less resistance) easier than a human body. the car sits on rubber tires wich act as an insulator isolating the car from the groun if you were to step out of the car as lightning struck you would be electrocuted.AnswerThe metal body of a car acts as a 'Faraday's Cage', which means you are totally protected against the affects of lighting. It has nothing to do with the fact that a car has rubber tyres!
