The idea that somebody would come out and fuel you up for you it's just so weird to me. Like, it's not that hard, was there a real theft problem it's hard to believe when the price was so low.

Afaik it's still the law in Oregon. I could be out of date (old) but their state law forbids you from filling your own tank, you have to let the attendant do it.

edit; and yeah it's always been weird to me too. Like you can trust someone to drive a car but not fill it with gas? Bizarre priorities.

I think there used to be more spills unless you were used to doing it. Also women used to be really treated with kid gloves, same for the upper middle class folks
