Let the chaos and confusion commence!1000 idiotic laws they have passed recently and finally they get one right.
Oregon’s self-serve gas ban voted out by lawmakers after decades
The bill would require gas stations to staff at least half of their pumps, but half could be available for self-service.
I can see it now, homeless RVs pump and run, leaving a trail of gas in their wake. Then they burst into flame.
You should run for president!
Do they take plastic there? All the places in WA went pre pay so long ago I can't remember when. Never mattered to me as they all had the card reader on the pump when they did and I never wanted to have to pump, then walk to the store anyway. I was shocked last time I went to AZ and the pumps did not have the readers. Had to go in and pay, then go back out and pump. Seemed really strange to me and often a PITA if there was a line at the counter.
Well luckily, most of the pumps now days take the card at the pump. Gone, hopefully, are the places that make you walk all the way to a window to pay first. And when you don't know how much exactly you'll take they make you estimate how much you'll take, and then you have to go back to the window, AGIAN, to get your change back.
Every time I think no one can screw things up as bad as we do hear I find out someone else really can beat us.Well luckily, most of the pumps now days take the card at the pump.

A station near us, with the lowest prices in the area, make you pay like that. If you are using a card, only inside for debit, they estimate how much with a healthy overage and charge the card. After you are done, you go back in, they cancel the first transaction, where you are charged the .90 fee and they charge the final amount to the card. With another .90 charge of course.
But-hey, it'll save oregon from total destruction I guess, so we have that going for us.
Oh! Almost forgot, the huge $$ saving we'll be getting once they can all the station employees! You bet!
So people are going to wash with it? I guess if they are that stupid they should not be driving a car. Or if they are that scared of it buy an EV. I figure anyone who is not smart enough to put gas in their car and just get it all over themselves should not be driving the damn thing.So folks are happy that they and their family are now going to be exposed to a cancer causing substance like gasoline.
Maybe look up the material safety data sheet on gasoline or just bing search it....

I was raised by depression era parents.Every time I think no one can screw things up as bad as we do hear I find out someone else really can beat us.
What a mess. The station's here do charge to use Credit and never bothered me any. The few cents it worth it to me for ease. I "hear" the Costco's here have a better price on gas than most. I also "hear" there is normally a line to get in there to buy it. For me when its time for fill up I look for a place on the way to where I am going that's simple to get in and out of. I tend to not really even look at the price. Most of my fill ups are at most 15 gallons so just not worth it for me to go out of my way to save a few cents per gallon.
Hopefully they will set up for people in OR now to just pay at the pump for those who want to. For those who still want someone else to pump for them sounds like they are still going to keep that. Those "full serve" places have almost vanished here. If there were still some around me I would often let them pump for me and be glad to pay for it. Last time I tried though the place had a sign saying they did. Problem was the person doing the pumping also was expected to run the damn store.
So I'll drive a ways to save a nickle or more. Good lord, everything causes cancer.! Maybe that's why I still see young, healthy, robust appearing people with masks on every day. Outside!So folks are happy that they and their family are now going to be exposed to a cancer causing substance like gasoline.
