The only way you are going to get 40mpg ang 100mph is being towed by a v8.

Ummm, not on a properly installed system. Sure you'll get fire if there a leak and an ignition source, but you do with petrol as well, don't you?
There should be three shut off valves on a system at least, one on the tank(s), one with a filter in the engine bay, and another on the vapouriser. All pipework should be external to the cabin to prevent build up of gas and fire risk, and if the engine stops, the fuel supply is automatically cut off in 3 places.
If a fire takes hold, the tanks just vent their gas slowly until empty, a pertol tank will melt or split and then pour burning liquid everywhere.
TBH, with a correct installation LPG is probably safer.
