I recently did some research on the new Honda FCX vehicle. In looking at the layout of the car i noticed that, in the rear, there is a tank of highly compressed hydrogen. Obviously this is necessary for a fuel cell to function but, in the event of a fire or a crash wouldn't this be similar to the Hindenburg? Is the gasoline tank of an ordinary car as prone to explosion? Would tanks of comparable size produce a similar explosion or would the hydrogen tank be even more volatile?
There is a danger with any highly compressed gas in an accident situation. Hydrogen will make it a bit more dicey, since it is highly combustable. I think much of the problem with the fuel cell vehicles was in creating an impact resistant container.
Of course, car fires now are not that common either. And modern cars do not really explode. They may occasionally burst into flame in a serious accident, however.
Long story short; I guess we will find out when they start having accidents.
