On a sportsmobile, the propane tank is behind the outer frame rail. But the floor appears to be cut, as opposed to the tank being located completely under the vehicle. Perhaps there's a DOT regulation that the tank needs to be protected by being centered on the rail. But it seems to me that in a side impact a ruptured tank might allow propane into the vehicle.
I wonder if a safer location isn't underneath and inboard from the rail. Allowing crush space from a side impact.
What are considered safer locations? What do European countries require? I do require heat part of the year, and diesel is not an option.
