Assistance for the Disabled at Self-Service Gas Stations The United States Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Disability Section issued a release in May, 1999 to inform self service gas stations of their duty to assist disabled persons to pump gas. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that self-serve stations provide equal access to their customers with disabilities. Gas stations are public accommodations and therefore subject to the ADA. If necessary to provide equal access, gas stations must: * Provide fueling assistance upon the request of an individual with a disability (one who has either a disability placard or license plate). A service station or convenience store is not required to provide such service at any time that it is operating on a remote control basis with a single employee, but is encouraged to do so, if feasible. * Let patrons know (e.g. through appropriate signs) that customers with disabilities can obtain fueling assistance by either honking or otherwise signaling an employee. * Provide the fueling assistance without any charge beyond the self-serve price. Other rules governing gas stations also provide that: * Employees are not required to pump gas for drivers with a disability if someone able to pump the gas is also in the car. * Attendants are not required to perform additional full-service duties such as cleaning windshields and checking oil. * Gas stations may have policies that limit the hours they can provide alternative service. Look for a blue poster in the window of the gas station that signals they serve drivers with disabilities; then look for a sign beside the poster displaying the hours the service is available. If denied assistance, customers may file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division (1 - 800 - 514 - 0201, TDD 1 - 800 - 514 - 0383) or may file a private lawsuit.

People with Disabilities Face Difficulty at the Pumps Publication: convenience store news Date: Wednesday, September 13 2006 COVINGTON, Wash. -- As full-service and mini-service stations continue to disappear from the market, people with disabilities are finding it harder to get service at the pumps. Such customers do have state and federal law on their side, which requires gas stations, if reasonably able to do so, to pump gas for people with disabilities. In addition, they must get the gas at the self-service price, not the higher price that some full-service pumps charge, according to a report by the King County Journal. The Americans with Disabilities Act, according to the Civil Rights Section of the U.S. Department of Justice, requires gas stations to provide equal access for their customers with disabilities. That means pumping gas, notifying customers they have that option and not charging them higher than the self-serve price, the newspaper said. But there is a caveat. A service station or c-store is not required to provide such service at any time it's operating on a remote control basis with a single employee, though it is encouraged to do so, if feasible, according to a Justice Department guide for service stations. Clara Warnke doesn't think it's right that she has to drive seven miles from her home in Covington, Wash. to Auburn, Wash. to fill up her car with gasoline. It's not that the gas is cheaper at the Auburn station she goes to, but at least there is a full-service pump there and someone who will fill up her tank The 82-year-old woman uses a walker, and getting in and out of her car is difficult. Lifting the gasoline hose isn't easy for her either. The problem is, she can't find anyone to fill her tank at a station close to home. Everything is self-serve, she told the newspaper. Toby Olson, executive director of the Governor's Committee on Disability Issues and Employment, said it's a real issue for people with disabilities, especially those who travel across the state or country. "It's very hard to find full-service or even mini-service stations anymore," he told the newspaper. "We have been trying to figure out a better way to address this issue for a long time ? I don't think there is much room to make a legal requirement much stronger than they are."
