Propane tanks are tough by nature of being pressure tanks and quite crash worthy.
As you can see, most fill by connecting a liquid line and venting vapor from the tank. Technically correct way is to have a liquid line and a vapor line and then either a vapor or liquid pump to create a pressure differential.
Propane ignites at a higher temperature than gasoline and also has a narrower air/fuel range over which it can be ignited so in that respect it is safer than gasoline.
To me, filled forklift or even barbecue tanks sitting around to be used as nurse tanks are safer than the plastic containers with loose fitting caps that they sell for storing extra gasoline!
