The first time I drove in Oregon I had no idea that you weren't allowed to pump your own gas. I pulled up to a gas station and proceeded to pump my own gas, something I had been doing for many years in a dozen other states. A minute or two into pumping, I suddenly saw a man come rushing out of the store, running toward me shouting. It scared the hell out of me! I thought something was really wrong, like somebody smoking a cigarette while filling up a gas can or something. Turned out I was breaking the law. He finished the pumping for me and warned me not to try anything like that again. Welcome to Oregon.
