> I see plastic bags over pump handles way more than 0.01% of the time.
Yes, I do see those often enough. Maybe once a week, so way more than 0.01%
But of course, even the tiniest of gas stations has multiple pumps, four is the smallest I recall seeing and the smallest one around here is 8 pumps.
One or two may be out of service regularly, but in more than 35 years of driving I have never pulled into a gas station where all 4/8+ pumps were out of service simultaneously.
And then, even if that happened, given the way gas stations congregate, there is another one across the street which will be working.
