Reply to comment by Curly_kayla in Illegal to Pump Your Own Gas? by Curly_kayla

You're not going to get arrested or fined for trying to self serve. I've been to some full serve places where I didn't know they were full serve and just got out and started pumping. Most of them just let you do you, but once or twice I have had the attendant run over and insist he does it.

I see. This is epic! I hate pumping gas.

There are some towns where there are only full service. Milford has a lot of that. There must be a history to that. Oregon was once a state where only pumped gas was available. When gas jockeys were a person to be admired… :)

I’ve never heard of this law until I made this post. Never been to Milford. Did not know that about Oregon. Thank you…long live gas jockeys 🫡

It's all full service in New Jersey by law as well!

Good to know.

In NJ the gas attendants have a special card they put in first that allows them to access the pump so you can’t self serve even if you want to. Not sure if it’s like that in Weymouth
