Actually, dropping to the ground might help, but only because lightening will generally strike the highest path to earth -- which is why it isn't safe to try to hide under a tree. I suppose that dropping to the ground could make you "lower" than something else that might be close by. You should stay away from high places -- like mountain cliffs or high hills, and off flat places like golf courses where you might be the highest thing in the immediate area.
What it really comes down to is you're probably safer in a house or car.
