I can't think of a single reason myself, and I've never seen any nj news stories where there was a problem with a person inside their car (with bmws, if you lock from the inside, the fuel filler door stays unlocked ) while getting gas. I'd much rather have my daughter sitting locked in her car getting gas from an attendant than to be on display out of her car pumping her own.

I never tip, but I go to Wawa in NJ to get gas and most of the people there are rude. Plus, these days I never have cash on me which is good an bad, since I use to tip people cash all the time who do a good job verse putting on the check and then having to pay taxes on it.

All kids here are equipped with those shiny bits in their clothes thanks to eu regulations. All kids here walk alone to school from 7 years and up. All adults who get to drive are taught how hard it is to see a person that is not wearing a reflector in the dark before they are given a driving licence. Now you know how hard it is to see a person without one, but you think you're so fucking special you glow from within? Darwin.

besides, when the attendant fills your car and you're sitting in it they wipe your windows and all that stuff so you feel bad and tip them and i just prefer to use my coins for parking instead of that |

If so, is it bad that I read the above bolded in a old Grandma voice "Now here's a quarter sonny, don't go and spend it all in one place..." and pictured you doing that? ![]() |

in turkey we have 1TL coins, it's basically the dollar bill for us which is super useful when you're buying something that isn't 5/10/20/50/100/200tl (aka single bill) |

American currency on the other hand...not useful. And yet the whole world wants it. And I always have to stare at the bill first to make sure I know the denomination, no real colour difference. I'm slow eh - I like the colour coded difference Canada has so I know exactly what bill it is. |

Say you're backing up your car in your own drive way and hit a tree. It's collision. Say you're parked in some parking lot and someone backs into you. Collision. A deer may not net you "at fault" points, but it's collision, unless the deer ran into your parked car. Comprehensive would be someone keying or stealing your car. |

From an Australian perspective, we have a pedestrian right of way rule. From what I understand some US States also have this rule.
It says, no matter what, if you hit a pedestrian with your car, you're at fault. Now, in reality, this just means your mandatory 3rd party medical insurance will pay for the injured party(s), and your insurance premium might go up. But, if you're *really* at fault - like you're speeding, drunk or driving through a red light, you're going to be facing civil charges for damages and criminal charges for endangering other people's lives. Thankfully, in Australia we have free medical anyway and damages typically only pay for actual costs, so we don't have to put up with this shite: (Edit: video starts at 13 seconds) |

It drives me crazy when they do this! It also drives me even more crazy when they just start walking in the cross walk regardless of cars coming or not. When I was in Hawaii they did it all the time and usually every year there were probably close to hundred deaths from it. Even if I'm crossing in a cross walk I wait until I know that all the cars have seen me and are slowing down. It's a cross walk not a force field. Plus in my opinion if you get hit by car because you weren't smart enough to look both ways and make sure you could safely get across, you deserve it. Pretty sure we all learned that when we were in Kindergarten. Just saying! |
