Not if you're eg a young woman working behind the counter. Also, in the past (I don't know if they still do it) but I've heard of the the attendant getting stuck for the cost of a "Drive Off" if the driver can't be identified.
Quote:Apart from the hilarious situation where you could wear a head-cover under your helmet, you could also go to the petrol station dressed like a "hoodie" with a pair of shades and the typical slouch. Absolutely no chance of being recognised on CCTV, but this would be acceptable as far as the pump attendants are concerned.
It depends on whether they take the "no helmets" thing literally. Remember, also, that probably the poor bugger behind the counter gets no say in the matter, it's Policy dictated by Head Office and they just have to do what they're told or risk losing their job, so giving them grief for something that isn't their fault is hardly fair.
