As an experienced driver my advice is the buckets at the fuel islands are not a bird bath.

That’s right folks there washing their feet out of the wash buckets. No fuel purchase no pull up, just blocking the pump and washi their lower extremities and the mess left

    Wait....I'm confused. I thought that type of crowd only drove Volvo's? I was always told Peterbilts are a 'gentlemen's truck' ......................................

    I seriously cannot comprehend the level of stupidity that we see day after day. I saw a guy washing his 5th wheel with the squeegee at the Pilot in Newburgh NY. I was going to confront him about it but I honestly didn't even know what to say

    Nasty. That water has been used to wash all kinds of grime, and they're putting it directly on their feet. Might as well be washing with sewage water.

    I have seen someone piss in the wash bucket. I’d rather have dirty feet…
    Course I shower most every day…

    Point taken I’ve spent time in their part of the world and understand the difference in cultures but regardless that is nasty water to be washing anything with an expected to be clean when one is done just flat gross and then leaving the mess behind is even worse

    I would have picked up those towels (with gloves on) and put them on their step while they were inside….

    That’s how it’s done in Tehran, Cairo and Islamabad.
