Head for a sturdy building if one is nearby. Otherwise, if it is heading toward you and is still in the distance you should try to drive perpendicular or diagonal to its path, depending on what the roads will allow, to get out of its way. If it is getting close get out of the car and lie in a ditch as a last resort.
