Who knew this

Have you ever rented or borrowed a car and when arriving at the
petrol station wondered...mmm, which side is the petrol filler cap?
My normal solution was to stick my head out the window, strain my neck
And look, try to see in the side mirrors or even get out of the car!!!!

Well ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to share with you my little secret so
you will no longer look like Ace Ventura on your way to the petrol station
or put your neck at risk of uncomfort or injury.

If you look at your petrol gauge, you will see a small icon of a
petrol pump? The handle of the petrol pump will extend out on
either the left or right side of the petrol pump?

If your tank is on the left, the handle will be on the left? If your
tank is on the right, the handle will be on the right (see photo). It is
that simple!

WHY don't the dealers share such important information with car buyers?

I don't understand why this isn't in the Highway Code or even the
car manufacturers manual??

The only possible explanation can be that all these people probably
don't even know!
