You have to be fricking kidding me...., how stupid are ppl Options

"Recently i went to Newark airport, there was a Hess gas station going northboung before arriving at the gas station. I got gas there and they made a gigantic mistake....

The nozzle didnt stop pumping after my tank was full. so the gas came out everywhere, the floor, on the car, on the tire, my shoes.... so I am wondering what damage could have it done to the car, like pumped too much gas into the tank, damage to the paint job, or make the tire deterioate faster....

Also there was no way to know how much gas exactly spilled.... I had about 1/2 tank and drove 182 miles since last fill up... i am estimating i had at least 6-7 gallons left... and that would be like 5 gallons spilling out.

so i am wondering what kinds things i can do to have them compensate for it financially, or if there was damage resulting from the spill. Can i get them to pay to fix it... for example if the paint start to fall apart..

should I notify my insurance company?would they increase the premium if they had to deal with it?

so I need any advice i can get... thanks guys" -from VVTI.net

Seriously, I can care less that he/she was in New Jersey and they are not suppose to pump the gas themselves. If your that stupid you shouldnt even have a license.

Just like the dumb person that sued McDonalds because she spilled her hot coffee on herself.

All gas stations around Washington I believe are all prepay. I don't mind, because I use the debit card for gas, so its all at the pump. To be honest I think prepay is a good thing, I wouldn't want a bunch of people filling up and then leave w/o paying..

Every time i'm in Oregon I get out to pump my gas and the attendant screams at me that its their job. I think it is just a way to lower unemployment rates.

umm not all are prepay! most are prepay after dark but there are still quite a bit you can pump first then pay!



oh and Oregon has people pump their gas as well - ive asked to pump my own down there before and they have.



Umm how did the pump not shut off automatically? ive never had a gas pump do that. It always automatically shuts off right when its near the top. hmm must have been a faulty pump
