New Jersey is the only state in the nation that does not all drivers to pump their own gas, a point of pride for many throughout the Garden State.
Nina Pineda and 7 On Your Side joined the gas police as inspectors took samples from the pump to be sent to the state for analysis.
Following the introduction, members of the New Jersey Gasoline, Convenience Store, Automotive Association , whose membership includes nearly 1,000 small business motor fuel retailers, came out in support of the bill. "The current law that does not allow for self-serve is crippling my small business," NJGCA President and gas station owner Joe Ocello said."When I got into the business years ago, it was a great way to make a living, a pathway to the American dream. But increasing prices and labor shortages are making it more and more difficult to run a gas station."
The bill would allow gas stations to offer the option of self-serve, though stations with more than four dispensers would still be required to continue offering full service. "I can guarantee that allowing for a self-serve option will save motorists, who exercise their right to choose, money at the gas pump," said Kashmir Gill, NJGCA member and owner of multiple locations in Central Jersey."As a station owner, I know that the self-serve option will bring my businesses significant cost savings that I can pass along to my customers."
