NUTS! You went where I was wanting to go!
I was thinking along the lines of what if I had the station jerk fill
my jerry cans and then I go across the street and pour it into my pickup
myself? Do they have a law against *that*?
What about a stranded motorist? Does a station jerk have to tag along
to put fuel in the tank properly? Are they trained on how to fill and then
empty a jerry can? Who puts in fuel additives (injector/carburetor
cleaner, etc.)?
What about construction equipment? Lawn mowers? (Do you have to haul
your mower to the station?) Other outdoor power equipment? What about
off road vehicles that need a fillup just this side of the middle of
nowhere? Do they have to be loaded on a trailer and hauled to the
nearest attended gas station? What happens if they find a gas can in
your garage? Oh dear!
Half the state's population must be fuel pumpers!
