Encountering a bushfire whilst in a car is a dangerous situation, but there are still many things one can do to try and improve one's chances of survival. Finding a clearing or anger natural barrier such as a rocky outcrop can help. Surprisingly, one should keep the engine running and face the fire front head-on. Remain inside the car, closing all doors, windows and vents. One should then get into the footwell and cover oneself with a woollen blanket, if possible.

Can A Bushfire be Predicted?
An actual bushfire cannot be predicted, but bushfire conditions can certainly be predicted. Variables include basic idiocy of humankind, e.g. whether or not arsonists will start the fire; whether or not someone will fully put out a campfire; whether or not someone will throw a lit cigarette butt out of a car window. However, the weather plays an important part in bushfire conditions, and "bushfire danger" warnings vary from low to extreme (and now a new category - "catastrophic" - has been added to the levels).
