I never make special trips for petrol, nor do I ever have to wait to get on a pump.

Calling bullshit on this. I drove a gas powered car for 16 years. Unless you started driving earlier this year, you've definitely done both of those things at this point.

I just get petrol when I'm passing. Why would I make a special trip? There's also plenty of petrol stations around that even if there was a queue I'd go to the next one but these days especially there never is. Most people use pay at the pump now so they're in and out within a minute.
