Not sure I like the idea of driving around with a bomb in my crotch.

Nice looking, though.

No... Hydrogen gas if far more combustible under pressure and heat than any hydrocarbon.

Um, yeah, what he said.

Hydrogen is explosive in very small amounts. Gas is merely flammable.

Exclamation well . .

well.. i found hundreds of pages saying the contraire, including BMW German reports etc..

but as you might want an Internal opinion this is what U.S Energy department think about hidorgen vehicles:

Technical Report: Hydrogen safer than gasoline (Hydrogen) energyportal24.com


and i quote: Swain concluded: "No car is perfectly safe, but hydrogen is safer than gasoline."

and here another link of Why:

EVWORLD FEATURE: Hydrogen Car Fire Surprise:HYDROGEN | FIRE | GASOLINE | FLORIDA | SWAIN | FUEL CELL | TANKS


If you google aboout safety of hybrid cars youll find hundred of reports, but even you try harder to find a decent report saying the contraire you wont, i could find just a yahoo answer saying the contraire! o and wasnt choosed as best answer.

I wouldn't call two articles posted from entities that are pushing hydrogen power to be exactly unbiased. So I don't see how there is any "ownage" whatever that is.

I base my stance on working with hydrogen, and having seen what it can do. If you go down and spring a fuel leak with gasoline, you get fire. With hydrogen you will get a sizable explosion.

It looks to me like there is either a storage tank or an expansion tank there in where the jugs would be on a standard twin.
