Propane by design is fairly safe - an odorant called a mercaptan is injected into it to give it a rotten egg smell for leak detection (same with natural gas), and the tanks are fitted with excess flow checks that will automatically stop the flow if a line is severed.

The main concern when fueling is the open flame in the event of a gasoline spillage....
