I imagine today a cop would pull you over for that.

I do too. My granddad would give me a quarter, and send me 1 block down (walking) to the Humble Oil station (tiger in your tank...anyone remember those?) with a 1 gallon gas can for the mower. The attendant would fill the can within about 3/8 of an inch of the cap. When I started driving gasoline was about 62 cents (58 - 62 cents).
