Maybe I'm wrong here but aren't those unsafe?
If I recall correctly, in a rear end accident, it
could shove the gas filler neck into the gas tank,
shearing it opening. Obviously, causing gas to
leak/dump out and become a safety hazard.
I like the idea...hidden, clean looking, out of
way...but are their any safety concerns?
