    Great story. Would have been better if you'd put $30 in

    Accept the good fortune and don't curse your luck so badly the next time things go wrong for you.

    Careful that you don't actually ASK for a UTP form, you will get processed as a 'drive off' which is very bad.
    Yeah - his issue was he didn't want to have to go back to Palmy to pay the same gas station.

    Dunno why - good excuse to go for another ride.

    OP - I agree. Pay it forward. And maybe stash a secret $20 in your jacket if you're the forgetful type.
