Geeez...don't get me wrong..I even run with my oven on, with a Dutch oven cooking a roast..or ribs...or pulled pork.
I was simply posting this as an infomercial. Plus..the thought of all of the weight, tire, etc police getting all torqued up...I mean..how many of 'them' are now going to run with the fridge off? Because, after all..it is a law.

It may well be a LAW in CANADA but it does NOT exist here in the USA except for those FEW places IE: Tunnels and Ferries
Running up/down streets/roads/highways/freeways/Interstates with propane valved in and in service is NOT against any US DOT LAW.
Period......does NOT exist
Debate goes on whether or not it should happen. But that boils down to personal preference. Not a LAW, Standard or Code----------Preference.
I travel with propane valve open and in service...fridge/furnace as deemed necessary by my personal preference.
When/If I encounter those 'tunnels/ferries' that have posted restrictions I comply with those LAWS......not someones opinion.
