As if the Fuel prices were not enough
 

Just filled up today and noticed this out of the corner of my eye.



As if 4 dollar per gallon gas was not enough. I watched it for about 10 seconds thinking to myself "who would believe this" then throwing up the :facepalm: and whipping out my iPhone.

Anyone else out there experienced this???

what the!!!

looks like somebody has a fine coming.

That is horrible.

lol that sucks and is funny at the same time. I hope you brought this to their attention.

obviously they are charging you more for holding up the 10 cars behind you while you stare at an a gas nozzle.

Theirs and the MD department of Weights and Measures...

take it to your local news for a shitstorm! or, the store gives you free tank and a case of beer. :D

That's messed up. What did the attendant at the gas station say?

Bypassed the attendant and went strait to the manager of the location. They asked me to send them the video.

do it get all us z owners gas :)

:drama:

In for results!

Good! rep+

Undeground leak.........IT"S GONNA BLOW!!!!! RUN!!!!!! :eek:

I have no audio at work. Are you holding down the trigger? And if so, is there a chance you're paying for gas escaping from the underground tanks? (gas gas, not liquid fuel).

Didn't you notice the puddle of gas at your feet? "Orange Mocha Frappachinos!!!!!"

Good thing it was only about $.20, eh?

Thank you for making me self conscience every time I pump gas now

Hmm I wonder if the OP knows how dangerous cell phones are. They are a excellent source of ignition for gas fumes :eek:

Just sayin .........

I hope you don't really believe this..

I would pass this video to the Local News..Immediately. :tup:

Heh. Busted by Mythbusters

He is from Canada Ehh, it takes news a bit longer to get across the northern border. ;)

That's pretty cool! They have the pump programmed to keep up with prices in realtime. or it's calculating the expansion of the fuel as the temp increases... greater temps equal greater volume. :icon14:

:roflpuke2::roflpuke2::roflpuke2::roflpuke2:

That was funny..

I should get the video clip of the gas station employee using his cell phone as a light source to check the tank level. He is dead now ..... burnt to a crisp.

Here in Canada cell phone usage is illegal when using a pump station to fill a vehicle with fuel. Not sure what your laws are but I know I wouldn't use a cell phone when refueling. I leave mine in the vehicle. They are one nasty ignition source.

Pffft. Everything is illegal in Canada. It's more like Europe than it is the US: nanny state overload.

Now that works for some people and obviously Canadians are happy with it, but that ain't how we do things here (yet).

dont you say bad things about Canada or they will send their army and invade the US and turn us into the Democratic Republic of America.

Which gas station in MD was this?

Did you watch the video opening???

Pump 8

Subscribing... :drama:

In for results as well...

hmmm, that's troubling...

WTH...

You're getting premium for $3.98 a gallon? :(

Forwarded the video to consumerist so hopefully they post it.

cant wait to hear the results. ask for free tank of gas for any z that stops by :tup:

Please do.. because:

snopes.com: Cell Phone Use at Gas Pump

Mythbusters proved this is pretty much not possible either.

Most sparks at gas pumps are caused by static electricity, not from cell phones.

I think I know what "BJ" is initials for!!

Hmmmmm funny how "meter creep" never works in the other direction! BTW is BJ's a full service station? LOL

Except as a patron you are the one giving him his initials.
