Is It Safe to Drive with a Liquefied Gas Tank?
1 Answers
Driving with a liquefied gas tank is extremely unsafe. It is illegal to transport a liquefied gas tank in a private vehicle. Hazardous Materials: Gas tanks are classified as hazardous materials. During driving, the vehicle may experience bumps. If the tank has quality issues—many have thin walls—it can easily be damaged during transport, and impacts may cause explosions. Additionally, the trunk of a car can become very hot in summer, and the tank may explode due to high temperatures. Precautions: Any vehicle transporting hazardous materials must have a transport permit issued by the chemical and hazardous materials department. Drivers must also undergo training and be certified, and during transportation, there must be an escort with a valid escort certificate. Illegal storage of gas tanks can be reported to the public security authorities or fire management departments.
