There’s a station near me with hoses that are long enough to do that with most vehicles (obviously my pickup wouldn’t fit, but every car I’ve driven is fine). But I don’t think most stations have hoses long enough to do that for anything but the smallest cars.
Am I the only one who did pump fuel perfectly fine from the “wrong side”?
Usually the hose is long enough to do it safely as long as the car is not too behind the pump.
In the Miata community, it’s called “Doing The Thing.”
Meanwhile Triumph TR4 is like, “What do you mean which side?”

Just a reminder that in Europe we use normal sized cars :)
So the average car here in France can definitely fuel from the wrong side. You still need to park the car close to the pump but it works.
Now if you try to do that with a Cybertruck…
