Oregon will prohibit gas stations from charging more for full-service fuel.

Oregon’s Senate has repealed a 72-year prohibition against self-service gas, with new legislation requiring gas stations to staff half the available pumps, while allowing the rest to be self-service. The bill, responding to industry staffing shortages, also prohibits charging more for full-service than self-service, likely leading to the phasing out of full-service pumps.

    Meanwhile, I live in a country where probably over half the gas stations have no personnel at all.

    I remember one service station testing the concept of having staff help with gas, and it felt really awkward.
