well...DUH. no shit.

Tip to all from an ex-gasjockey. You know how you see people shutting off the pump WITH THE NOZZLE? Yeah, that breaks it. So just use your hand, shut off the pump normally and you'll save gas running down the side of your car next time. I don't understand why people feel the need to slam the machine off using the pump itself... OP you deserve it. Its really easy to notice when gas is running down the side of your car. It smells, it sounds like running water...

Pay attention you moron. Don't get back in your car after you start that thing it can malfunction like that. And you deserve getting charged!

Everyone, she's not stupid because she's a woman. She's stupid because there's something wrong with her brain, or the way she was raised. Most women would never leave a gas pump unattended while they were filling up, and there are plenty of guys out there who would. Give the sexism a rest. Trolls, it's not funny.

Fact of the matter is that most women like to reenter the vehicle after they start fueling. From this position, they would most likely be slow to notice such an incident. Also, be careful of static electricity when doing this, please.

Good job endangering others, you lazy asshole. It it REALLY that difficult to stand there and monitor the pump while you fuel your vehicle? Or was it just too much to ask of you to assume some responsibility, because you're such a privileged and entitled little American? (Note to flamers: I'm American as well, as my screen name should hint at, but I hate idiots like the OP who clearly have an air of entitlement about them. Sadly, this is a common trait among our citizens) Next time, stand outside the car and pay attention rather than endanger the lives of others. I don't care what else you think is more important in the minute or two it takes to fill up an average car (unless you're a stupid **** who owns an Escalade, which will take longer and would make me laugh at how much more money you had to spend to pay for the spill) but try to focus your attention on not being a complete **** up.

Hahahhahahahahaha!! What a ******* idiot. I'm sure you get in or barely avoid a lot of car accidents also, with that kind of attentiveness.

Doesn't matter if he should have noticed the gas overflowing, the damn thing should stop when it's supposed to.

Wow... So we don't know that we're suppose to actually pay attention and watch as we pump gas? Even my 12 year old can figure that out. Should have charged double as a dumbarse tax.

Uhm, is Colorado a state that is self-serve.? New Jersey isn't so it wouldn't be his fault if Colorado isn't either. I don't see why so many people said they deserve it.
