    You serious?  So how does that work?  I imagine the price at the pump is higher to offset the added expense.  Do you have to tip them?
    Oh heck no. I pull up to the gas station, give them my card and tell them to fill it regular.  That is it.  I paid $1.89 for regular yesterday.

    That's crazy, but kind of nice at the same point.  Our Governor is trying to pass the same in IL and everyone is up in arms.  He's also trying to tax us harder at the pump, so that plays into it.  I've always pumped my own gas so it would take some getting used to, but the more I think of it, the more I think I would like it!

    It is a law.  NJ residents are not allowed to pump their own gas.  You can get fined if you do.  No joke.

    Your car takes regular?  Is it a 78 Nova?

    Nah, you're probably not old enough to remember 'regular' meant leaded back in the day.  You'd say "fill it up with regular" to the attendant, vs "unleaded".

    We don't have one in Virginia.  You have to have 40 documented hours,  including 10 at night.  Six months with a learner and pass driving school.  But there is no road test at the end.

    Same thing in Oregon.  I always thought that was cool when we went up to Medford to visit my folks.  Pull in, ask them to fill it with regular, pay less than here in California. (Everyone pays less than here in California, lol.)

    Regular is still used but changed to octane now that there is no leaded gasoline. Up here regular gas is 87 octane.

    They call unleaded basic here regular but I remember when leaded was regular as well.

    Scary shit right there. That Gov is either stupid or nuts.

    No test to drive a car and go ahead and go to the Restaurants, Hair Salons, and get a  massage.

    He just wants to make sure traffic accidents get their share of the headlines. Don’t want Covid getting all the glory.
