发帖数: 2507 | 2 Filling stations typically offer one of three types of service to their
customers: full service, minimum service or self service.
Full service
An attendant (gas jockey) operates the pumps, often wipes the windshield,
and sometimes checks the vehicle's oil level and tire pressure, then
collects payment (and perhaps a small tip).
Minimum service
An attendant operates the pumps. This is often required due to legislation
that prohibits customers from operating the pumps.
Self service
The customer will perform all required service. Elaborate signs informing
the customer how filling procedures and cautions are displayed on each pump.
Petrol theft is very common in these sort of stations.[citation needed]
[edit] Canada and United States
The states that do not allow self service gas; New Jersey and OregonIn the
past, filling stations in the United States offered a choice between full
service and self service. Until the 1970s, full service was the norm, and
self service was rare.
The first self service station in Canada was located in Winnipeg, Manitoba,
in 1949 and was operated by independent Henderson Thriftway Petroleum, run
by Bill Henderson.[12] The first self service gas station in the United
States was in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1958, run by Sam Rosenbaum.
Today, few stations advertise full service. Full service stations are more
common in wealthy and upscale areas. The cost of full service is usually
assessed as a fixed amount per U.S. gallon.
A typical Mobil gas station
A Valero gas station in Mountain View, California, USA
A Sheetz gas station in Breezewood, Pennsylvania, USA.All stations in New
Jersey and Oregon offer only full service and mini service; attendants are
required to pump gas because customers are barred by statutes in both states
from pumping their own gas. New Jersey banned self-service gasoline in 1949
after lobbying by service station owners. Proponents of the ban cite safety
and jobs as reasons to keep the ban.[13] Likewise, the 1951 Oregon statute
banning self-service gasoline lists seventeen different justifications,
including the flammability of gas, the risk of crime from customers leaving
their car, the toxic fumes emitted by gasoline, and the jobs created by
requiring mini service.[14] In addition, the ban on self-service gasoline is
seen as part of Oregonian culture. One commentator noted, “The joke is
when babies are born in Oregon, the doctor slaps their bottom, ‘No self-
serve and no sales tax’ [. . .] It’s as much a cultural issue as an
economic issue. It’s a way of life.”[15] In 1982, Oregon voters rejected a
ballot measure sponsored by the service station owners, which would have
legalized self-service gas.[16]
The town of Huntington, New York bans gasoline self-service to save jobs.
The ban went in effect in the early 1970s during a recession.
The constitutionality of the self-service bans has been disputed. The Oregon
statute was brought into court in 1989 by ARCO, and the New Jersey statute
was challenged in court in 1950 by a small independent service station, Rein
Motors. Both failed. New Jersey governor Jon Corzine sought to lift the ban
on self service for New Jersey. He asserted that it would be able to lower
gas prices, but some New Jerseyans have argued that it can cause drawbacks,
especially unemployment.
In New Jersey and Oregon, it is legal for customers to pump their own diesel
(although not every station permits diesel customers to do so; truck stops
typically do).[citation needed] In Oregon, "certain nonretail" customers may
also pump their own fuel.[17]

发帖数: 15334 | 18 呵呵，养路费主要来自两个source，就是燃油税和过路费。NJ低燃油税和Full Service
，是因为NJ可以afford低燃油税。NJ是全美人口密度最高的州，车多所
以道路的使用很efficient，过路费可以收到很多钱，不需要再收高燃油费。
所以NJ低油价不是偶然的，也不是为了“愚弄”选民。
