Natural gas is an interesting option, but of course what happens if a car rolls over in an accident is the big worry.

Well... you've seen gasoline spill out of a car tank, and your mower refill gas can.

Have you seen LNG/NG 'spilling' out of a pressurized tank? Even if you roll it down a long hill?

Doesn't gasoline have a higher energy density than LNG/NG ?

Is a car gasoline tank more susceptible to explosion when it is full, or when almost empty?

Natual gas is also lighter than air so any leaks will dissipate rapidly.
