It's amazing to me that some people will not take time to do something so simple. It's not only your life but the lives of everyone else in the area you put in possible danger. Do fires happen often because of this, I'm sure they don't. It only takes once though.
I am a mathematician and I understand probability and odds. The chances of your trailer exploding at a gas pump are miniscule when compared to what could happen during a tire blow out or a hitch malfunction. And, lets not forget the probability of getting into an accident while towing through a busy intersection or a high speed highway. Hey, don't forget the chances of trouble during night driving, driving in high winds, hail and rain. All of these would be far more probable that an exploding trailer at a gas station.
Could you get into an accident? Could your family be injured? Could there be a loss of life? Absolutely. So why take the chance? Stay home and you don't need to worry.
Personally, I run with the propane on and the fridge running. I fuel up with the fridge on. I will obey the laws and turn everything off when required, not just when suggested.
My conclusion, getting a glass of milk is risky.
Now I only drink beer.:B
Love this. If you don't mind I may use this.
