Oregon finally legalizes pumping your own gas
"Full service" used to mean checking oil and air and other driving essentials during stops. Oregon passed legislation intending to stop the death of "full service" stations but failed to meaningfully define The level of service.The only excuse for the law being around so long was that it created jobs. Which was lame reasoning. They intentionally kept the gas tax lower in the state so consumers didn't notice the price difference. So effectively these were government subsidized jobs.Good riddance. Forcing someone to stand in gas fumes all day was clearly not good for their health. And I always avoided filling up in Oregon because waiting for the "service" could sometimes be longer than the fill-up itself.
