If you wrecked and the air tank popped, it would rip your car in twain. More dangerous then a ruptured gas tank. That would at least take a few seconds or even a minute to enfuld the car. This would be instantanious.

Not quite as bad as the hydrogen tank ruptures that they tested in the 70s when hydrogen powered engines started maing the news, as you would not have the fireball. but the air would be highly more compressed.
