Happy New Year everyone. Isn't it nice to know that there will always be things in our lives to anchor us down. The sun will rise tomorrow, it will set in the evening and there will always be a propane thread like this one running on any and all of the trailer forums.
I like to talk LOGIC when people start getting all worked up. I DO NOT believe that there are ANY states out there that prohibit the use of propane while driving down their highways. There ARE places where you have to turn off propane and I have even heard that there ARE places where you can't even take a cylinder. These are rare cases usually involving car ferries and tunnels.
The OP asked about the general practice. Yes, you can use your propane while traveling. I live in the Northwest. I will use a ferry now and then. I have to turn off the propane when doing so. That won't stop me from using it all the rest of the time.
