    Was he putting it in something other than his truck or did he run the fuel hose from his truck to the one beside him as in selling fuel. Lots of questions about the situation.

    Real simple, they use there fuel card, put fuel in some o/o truck for half the pump price, and pocket the cash. Happens all the time......had a driver at my last company get caught doing it, and was arrested and charged with larceny.

    Driver pulled through fuel island and another truck pulled into the pumps behind him. I saw driver pull his fuel card out of his pocket and insert it. I saw him then enter the info, after the 2nd truck filled I saw money change hands and the driver put the nozzle up. Both trucks came out of the TS parking area. I keep a video camera within reach because I love to film interesting things while on road, when I saw the driver get his fuel card out I started filming.

    Of course you should. Stop the thievery and hold the prices down.

    I saw it with my own 2 eyes and still don't believe it. I would never believe anybody would be so stupid as to accept money like that, but he did. I was about 100 feet away, and could clearly see money.

    Years ago I had a driver at the Jessup, MD TA give me $30 worth of gas off his card in exchange for my $20 cash once. He probably needed the money to go smoke some rock.
