Its your legal obligation to pay for it. Otherwise that makes you a thief.

I pay $130 per month total in transit expenses. It just doesn't make financial sense to own a car tbh.

I couldn't even fit that much gas in my car! It costs me £27.12 to fill up my 17 gallon tank.

It's about £1.25 a litre depending on where you get it.

~$2.15 a gallon here. So $0.56 a liter/ 43p a litre

This is shit. Even as fucked up as Syntax is, I 100% think he would immediately reimburse the station for the fuel.

Someone could lose their job over that much money. 5 bucks is one thing but 62 is not a small discrepancy when the till is counted at the end of the shift. The Boss will hold the clerk accountable for the money.

This. Every pump and every car is logged, precisely for this situation. Svet's in for a large fine.

You ride a bus everywhere because you are too cheap to own a car? Do you really need to be such an antisemitic stereotype?

I really wish there was a way to bootleg American petrol into Europe. I'd make so much fuckin money ?. Just mark it up 100% and it's still 30% cheaper than what you poor bastards pay.

So you pay $6.24 a US gallon (for some reason American gallons are smaller than British gallons). To put this in perspective, Americans flipped out and lost their shit when gas hit $4 a gallon in 2008. If we had UK gas prices, there would be blood in the streets. Yellow Vest protest x100.

@OP
Petrol prices aside though, how does this work? Here you have to insert your card first into the pump or go inside and pay cash. Either way you don't get petrol until you've either paid cash or they've authorized your credit card (usually with a $1 pending charge that is taken off the next day).

You just pump and there's a payment terminal at the pump that you just go into. If you make off without paying that's actually a criminal offence and the station will report it to the police. They'll see that OP did that, use the cameras to get his reg number and use DVLA to trace it to his person, whereupon they will slap him with a big old fine.
