I have just started driving again and I am on oxygen. Can someone tell me how I get petrol for my car as I believe I am not allowed to go into petrol stations with oxygen. Thank you

Hi

I use oxygen and go in petrol stations no problem, although I do use my own portable concentrater.

Different point of view.

Another alternative if available.

Another option is to contact garage, several have call buttons next to pump if you need assistance, subject to staff being available.

There is no problem wearing oxygen while getting petrol. I have done it now for many years. It is not illegal

I read somewhere that you were not to go into petrol stations with oxygen as could be dangerous.

Actually just read again from an article that has just put up you should turn oxygen off. I have liquid at the moment, so should not be running while getting petrol. Thank you to every one for replies.

Use the "Pay at Pump" option as this will save you the walk to the payment desk

Someone ask this a few weeks ago so you should be able to search the answer. They mentioned certain apps where you contact the petrol station who will have someone fill your car for you if i remember rightly. Shame they wont pay for it as well🤗
