Have you heard about that,here in our country there are Taxi cab companies that run their business using LPG,I was surprised knowing that because in a tropical,hot country this maybe dangerous and the risk of leakage which has been happening in the household. Correct me if I'm wrong, I have not heard a very thorough investigation or researches that will guarantee the safe use of it.

It has been introduced here in the Philippines, i think a few years back. and some of taxis have converted them into LPG. regarding research as to how safe to use it i'm not quite sure, but so far i've never heard anything, like explosion or what regarding use of LPG taxi

yes,but taxi drivers said that if they are loading it they smell the leaks as it squirts out of the refiller. and since the taxis are airconed it is being trapped inside and they feel that their skin gets dry and hard to breathe. and so possibly that minute leak might lead to explosion as does cellphone prevented to be on when refilling for they feel the threat of sparks of any leakage.
