The ban on pumping your gas is OreGONE

Posted on by Kolbe

We talk a lot about dealing with traffic and being stuck waiting to go nowhere quick, but one place we take for granted is the lack of lines at the gas pump. That’s not the case in Oregon, though. Oregonians have become accustomed to long lines at their gas stations because they do not allow you to pump your own gas. All gas stations are full service. The people of Oregon have had enough though, and have just passed a bill allowing you to pump your own gas. This alleviates the lines as people no longer have to wait for the attendant to finish the car ahead of you before they can begin pumping your car. This is great and all, but if you ask me, getting more of those cars off the road would also help take the stress away of filling up your tank, but I guess that’s none of my business.
