How to Stay Safe at a Gas Station

Stopping at a gas station to fill up may be second nature to most longtime motorists, but exercising common sense in regard to your safety when there is always important. Here are some tips for staying safe at a gas station.

EditSteps

  1. Go to the gas station during the day if possible. Generally speaking, incidents are more likely to occur if you go to a gas station after dark or especially in the middle of the night, when there are few others around. If you're on the road early in the morning and run out of gas, call a roadside assistance service for help or ask a friend/family member to pick you up instead.

  2. Look for a well-lit gas station in a reasonably safe neighborhood. Sometimes you may not have a choice, but you shouldn't have to feel nervous when stopping for gas in a dark area or an unsafe part of town if you have other options.

  3. Once you find a pump and get out of your car, turn off the vehicle and lock the doors. Never leave your car running idle or your doors unlocked as you get gas, even for a few moments or if there is someone inside it.

  4. Keep your personal items by your side. Do not leave your purse, wallet, phone, etc. in the car.

  5. Pump your gas and move on. After you've filled up and paid, close up the gas tank and return to your vehicle promptly. Don't dawdle.

EditTips

  • While not a guarantee of anything, being accompanied by at least one other person when getting gas is better than going alone.

EditWarnings

  • Be cautious and use discretion if approached by someone asking for money, use of your phone, etc.
