Oh, my...apparently she didn't know how to pull the car around to another pump on the proper side of the car?
Btw, one way you can tell if you're not sure which side your gas tank fills up on is to look on your gas guage at the little picture of a pump. Whichever side the hose is one is the side you fill up on. A little tip I discovered, and I've tested it, it's true.

Hmmm, I'll have to check that out tomorrow. Thank you. I'm getting tired of being dragged under the car.
My ex came from New Jersey and, at that time, there were no self-service gas stations in that state. So when we left there to drive to Texas for our honeymoon, when we stopped for gas at a self-service station, she wanted to learn to do it.
She got out and put the nozzle into the proper place. "Now squeeze the handle "I said". But nothing happened.
I said: "you forgot to turn the pump on, go flip that lever".
She went back to the pump, nozzle in hand, and flipped the lever.
But she was still squeezing the handle, so immediately gasoline began gushing out of the nozzle.
Surprised, and not realizing what the problem was, she said: "Is it supposed to do that?".
I shouted: "Let go of the handle"
Before she managed that manoeuver, the gas pump, the car hood, and the driveway were all soaked.
It's a good thing there was no flame around anywhere.

Makes me feel better that there are others out there.
I was learning to drive a stick shift, turned into a gas station, put my foot on the gas instead of the brake and gas station attendants were running in every direction....away.
