Here in British Columbia, Grants law was passed requiring all gas purchases to be prepaid after a gas station worker named Grant was ran over and killed as he tried to stop someone attempting to gas and dash. Back then gas was much cheaper so someone died over like $50. Doesn’t need to be a lawless society just one where someone makes a stupid choice. And we have lots of stupid people out there.

"The Law was named for Grant De Patie, a gas station worker who was killed in 2005 by an underage drunken driver ... Grant was dragged 7.5 kilometers before his body was dislodged from the white Chrysler LeBaron."
