Tornadoes destroy houses as well. Nothing special about vans.

Worrying about low probability events isn't helpful. Worry more about things that are likely to occur and that you can take steps to prevent. Like maybe running out of gas, which is easy to do if you always top up when it drops to less than half or touches a quarter tank.

OK, I agree with your main point, but that first statement? No. Tornados can destroy houses but they don’t usually pick them up and throw them. Usually.
