Some lawmakers say NJ drivers should be able to pump their own gas | Would you want to? Take our poll!
That may come to an end, however, with a new proposal to allow self-service as an option as gas prices surge due to inflation and Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"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."
"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."
