I spotted this 740i in the parking lot of my local Publix supermarket. Seriously, what was this driver thinking about when they filled up with gas? 😂

Judging by the amount of curb damage on the wheels, I don't think they give a flying f*ck about anything.

My guess: He/she forgot to fix the gas cap, then parked, and a passing-by dude closed the flap to give a lesson.

Probably daily driver is a car with a capless tank.
In a rush. Stress. Could be anything. |

My guess is that the person was talking on their cell phone while filling up, was totally zoned out and not paying attention to anything.

Did something similar in my Hellcat once. At the station the pump refused to work. Moved car to another pump. It didn't work either. Got in car and was heading to another station. Happened to spot a Ferrari behind my car. And then I saw the gas tank filler bay door open and the cap loose!
My face I'm sure turned as red as the paint on the Ferrari... |

There are people out there who are genuinely ditsy and have a Darwin-awards level of minimal situational awareness.

Folks get distracted sometimes. That's why when I can't find my keys I always check the front door.

Easy mistake depending on the distractions and or the anxiety in rushing to finish as the line behind them was growing. Ever been to Costco for gas?

I've been to FL in the summer. It's took hot and humid to think straight.
