UK gov wants to block uninsured motorists from buying gas - cashiers fear conflict
http://j.mp/zoFuP2 (Mirror)
"Downing Street officials are due to meet representatives from the
major fuel companies in the next few weeks to discuss the idea. But
some petrol retailers said the proposals were a "step too far" -
claiming they put cashiers at risk. Brian Madderson, from RMI Petrol,
which represents independent petrol stations, said: "Staff are already
getting stick from motorists for high fuel prices. "This proposal
will increase the potential for conflict. Our cashiers are not law
enforcers."
