Diesel Fuel In The Gas Tank

wrong

So it IS hard?

The pump with the greasy stain 4 feet around it is the diesel pump.

The drivers have to do their best to keep the mechanics busy.

Job security.

The pump I used today had a black nozzle for regular unleaded and a green nozzle for diesel.

Now that is believable.

Perhaps a smell test would be in order since the industry can't stick to a standard and nobody reads.

Taste test?

Ok guys, since I am kind of the fact checker around here..View attachment 284125

So, it doesn't actually fit inside the fill tube, but it's damn close. You can get the tip in there. Now obviously this is a gas car, not a ups truck. And that's a nacho cheese pump, but it's the exact size as the small diesel.

"If it does not fit, you must acquit!"

One time I almost put diesel in the DEF tank lol.

Is reading a lost concept?
Just looking above the nozzle is a word describing the fuel each nozzle dispenses...

Taste test?

Even better. Do like Beldar at the pump.

Nah... no you didn’t.

Diesel and gas have pretty distinct smells. Surely that would be a flag that something isn't right.

In the 90s they charged us with an accident if they had to tow it.

Same here. If we got stuck in the snow and had to be towed, accident.

Feel the love.

It appears that rule would significantly limit your options on a snowy day because you can't predict when you would/could get stuck?

Yup. I never called out once in the snow, but when I got in, if I didn’t feel safe going out I refused and went home. My route was in a very hilly area. A few times I left the building, drove about a mile and turned around and went home.

Here’s the bright side of being charged with an accident if you need to be towed. You can wipe your arse with the piece of paper that it’s written on.

I was almost in a horrible accident one day in the snow on my route. One of the main roads on my route was a roller coaster. Guy coming in the other direction lost control and was all over the road. Coming right at me, and at the last second regained control and missed me. I was shaking the rest of the day. We would have collided at around 35 mph.
