Vented gas cap-- ok in garage that is under the house?

Before the 1970's emission controls, people parked cars with vented gas tanks in all kinds of garages. Some of which were surely under their houses. I don't recall ever hearing of gasoline fume explosions or any other problems caused by these vent-to-atmosphere fuel systems. Why do you think this will be a "problem" in 2017, when it was not a problem in 1967?
if you are still worried, install a vent for the garage. You can put it on a timer, and cycle it once or twice daily.
