You mean the ones that almost guarantee that I'll spill a bit of gas each time I use them, those ones? The ones that are so bad that the best alternative is a “utility container”[1]?
Seriously, I've never seen such a counter-productive regulation in my life.

- wyager 10y agoFun story: I and some buddies were in Colorado skiing over spring break. My buddy accidentally left his truck idling overnight and ran out of gas. We had a gas can, so no problem, right? Well, thanks to CARB, the gas can valve was so complicated that it jammed up (probably due to the cold) and could not be operated. We tried smashing it open, and eventually some spring-loaded piece shot into the trees and the can was still stuck shut. Thanks, congress! A neighbor ended up having an illegal jerry can that actually worked.
