Let’s say the person was asymptomatic but spreading. How many gas stations did they visit? How many potential exposures?

Probably 1 gas station for the return trip. They had expanded gas tanks to last the whole trip.

Assuming they were infected and shedding but practiced reasonable safety precautions when they stopped, it is easy to have no potential exposures.

Potential exposure is essentially 0 if you correctly wear gloves, a mask, and keep a reasonable distance
