Why? Leaking petrol drips onto the vehicle or polls on the floor underneath.
LPG dissipates into the air. I'd much rather be in a car leaking lpg than
petrol.

I suppose its because gas fills a room much more quickly (poor
ventilation underground), so if a smoker walks in it all over in one big
bang. Petrol just causes a fire on the floor where the puddle is..
