exploding fuel cans are very rare.. even when dragged along a road. From personal experience and a lot of stupid youngster stuff I know that it takes a direct flame (a min of 600 deg) to make fuel ignite (yes I have put out a ciggie in petrol). To get an ignition from a spark (as inside an engine) you require a very precise mixture or air/fuel. these days teh 1-15 ltr plastic jerry cans are ideal for transporting, even tied direct to your body. Unless someone throws a match at you I know you are safe. The only dangerous side to being covered in petrol is that it will stuff up your leathers and/or poly clothing...
I for one would be very comfortable in carry a jerry can full of fuel as long as the fumes are not effecting me.
