Imagine the scene of an accident..."were waiting for forensics to arrive to get particles from the crater so we can find out who hit who".

totally agree with the first part.
The second part. . .It's only as dangerous as rupturing your fuel tank. Most likely what would happen is a valve would snap off the tank causing it to accelerate in whatever direction the valve was.
Hydrogen is very energetic and much lighter than air, not like propane, methane or iso-octanyl. The hydrogen once its out of the tank would rapidly expand and no longer be dense enough for combustion. Seriously try getting some to burn more than a few inches from a small outlet.
