Absolutely. Fuel cells are safer alternative, but when it comes to compressed hydrogen, nothing is completely safe. Comes down to probability of a mishap and the severity of the credible mishaps. You only install safety measures to counter the severe and probably mishaps.

H2 is one of the most dangerous chemicals around. It is a very small molecule so it leaks easily. It also has a very broad range of explosive limits

Yep. But they can solve that problem, can't they? <ggg>

I can see it now, Hindenburg Hydrogen stations every 50 miles on I-5.
