That's debateable I think... As there's different risc-aspects involved with the two materials, it's hard to compare them.
High-concentrated hydrogen peroxide reacts with anything besides teflon and pure aluminum, so it certainly requires more care in handling and storage than gasoline. A fire initiated by hydrogen peroxide would also be more difficult to put out compared to one initiated by gasoline.
