  • Surveys showed that more than 70% used cars to evacuate, suggesting a vital transportation method during tsunamis.
  • New observations of tsunami height, run-up situations, and submarine landslides highlight risks for future events.
  • Findings emphasize the need for tailored evacuation strategies that utilize vehicles in coastal disaster planning.
