No, Jamal is not correct. Being in a car during a tornado is not considered safe. In fact, it can be very dangerous. Tornadoes can move extremely fast, often exceeding the speed at which a car can safely drive. Additionally, if a tornado approaches, the car can be picked up and tossed by the wind, which poses a significant risk of injury or death.
The safest place to be during a tornado is in a sturdy building, ideally in a small interior room or a basement, away from windows. If you are caught outside with no shelter, it is often recommended to lie flat in a low-lying area, like a ditch, covering your head with your arms.
