    I my case we have three cars in our family home that I drive, my fathers, my brothers and my own. So everytime I go to petrol station I got like a small hit of amnezia in that moment - try to remember on which side the petrol cap is - but I never done something like that woman in the video :)

    Even if you choose the wrong side, the petrol tubes are long enough to reach your petrol cap..

    Here in USA, if you look at your fuel gauge on the dash, you will see a gas pump / or / light......either on left or right side of the gauge.......which indicates which side your fuel door is on.
