Re: Oregon motorist billed for ripping off gas pump hose

said by Hiker:

I never pull away without looking to see if filler/hose removed.

I never pull away without looking to see if the gas cap has been put back on, and that it 'clicked' at least three times.

I never pull away without looking to see if the filler / hose is removed, the cap is back on and clicked at least 3 times, and I've danced a jig around the entire car at least once.

Not necessary here, because we don't have to get out of our cars to refuel.

How do people pump gas but forget to put back on the gas cap or close the cover? I never understood that.

You can get distracted in between the process of putting the pump back on its rack and screwing the cap back on.

1 - Waiting for your receipt (Cause you need the code for the car wash)
2 - Getting the hose untangled from under your feet
3 - Wanting to pump some more gas into a portable tank for your lawn mower (not stopping to first close the cap on the car). This happened to me once
4 - The wife nagging about something while doing any of the above to contribute to forgetting about the cap.
