Just because I am now curious and we have never thought to run the fridge while driving. Is it dangerous to have the propane running while you are driving? What happens if you get into an accident? Is it safe? Not judging at all, but I am curious before I ask my husband, why do we not drive with the fridge running!!![/QUOTE
If all your systems are properly maintained to assure no leaks, then there should be no problems using the refrigerator while driving. There are those that say they should be turned off (also tank shut off) while refueling, but we never have done that.
We have always run with ours on and have never had a problem in 42 years. We also run our generator at times while driving, ours is gas, but some are propane.
There is always a small risk with gas or propane tanks in accidents, while driving. (we obviously 'must' have our engines running, so you have 'gas' lines full at all times).
Some tunnels, or other local ordinances, require everything to be shut off, but for the most part you can use appliances while running.
Is there a 'small' risk, yes, but most things in life are - just keep your RV maintained in very good condition.
We have always been 'super conscious' of 'all' our maintenance, and our fear is parking (in campgrounds) or even passing by those that don't seem to take very good care/maintenance of their RV's.
Have a safe happy trip and be careful!
But, tire maintenance is 'just' as important. We put new tires on every 7 years (per recommendation) even though we keep our MH garaged.
We have seen the 'results' of old tires on trailers/MH's - not pretty.
