I wonder if there mightn't be a case to sue the filling station?
After all, pubs can lose their licence if they let get their customers so inebriated that they cause a public nuisance. If a filling station's customers spill diesel on the road as they're leaving, doesn't that come under duty of care or something? Particularly if they don't do anything about it and some other unfortunate comes along and crashes on the same patch.
It's not their problem though is it, you can't expect a garage to take the blame for someone's leaking fuel system.
Selling booze to someone who's pissed out of their mind is a different story though. But even then, what's to stop them getting in a car parked up the road and causing carnage?
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
