Running your propane Refrigerators while traveling?
I've heard that running your Fridg on gas while traveling is dangerous. They say it can start fires. So...What do you do?

Refrigerated semi trailers run theirs while traveling. The vast majority of RVers do it without a second thought. If this hazard was statistically meaningful Dometic and Norcold would have safety interlocks to prevent fridge use while underway.
The only places I've seen that demand you shut off the propane are tunnels.
refers run a compressor fridge, not propane. often powered by a diesel generator.
If we are only a few hours away from destination I turn it off. If we are going to be traveling most of the day, it's on.
