Can rough roads create a suction from the water tank vent?

I have been driving some windy and hilly roads on Highway 101 on the Oregon Coast with the MH, and it seems that I have lost water from the water tank. Can surging water in the tank leak out the vent...

I installed a valve to close the over flow after I fill the tank.


I did this mod too once I figured out that almost 1/3 of my water would slosh out on the drive. I always fill the tanks before heading out because we almost exclusively boondock.
