I often stop by my local gas station for a Diet Dr. Pepper on my way home from work and two out of the last three times I've been there they've had a 'Drive off'. Pretty self explanatory, a drive off is when someone fills their tank and drives away without paying.
With gas prices soaring I can understand the impulse but aside from the fact that stealing is wrong because the government hates competition, to quote one of my all time favorite bumper stickers, I can't believe people actually think they are going to get away with it. I know that people are stupid, but really! So, just in case there are any more people considering being stupid, let me let you in on a little secret. There are cameras everywhere! It's that simple, as soon as you pull up to the gas station you are on camera. You, your car and your license plate duh! You know, those things they use to keep track of which cars belong to who, well as soon as you 'drive off' they know who you are and where you live, don't be stupid. Look, we are all feeling the pinch right now, but there are other things you can do. Trade in your Gas guzzling SUV for a more efficient vehicle to start with. Or if you don't like that idea there are of other things you can do to save fuel. Anyway, I'm done ranting, it's time to watch House.
