Legally driven motor vehicles can be refueled at gas stations. Specific details are as follows: According to Article 95 of the Road Traffic Safety Law: Motor vehicles driven on the road without displaying license plates, inspection qualification marks, insurance marks, or without carrying the vehicle license and driver's license shall be detained by the traffic management department of the public security authorities. The parties concerned shall be notified to provide the corresponding certificates and marks or complete the necessary procedures, and penalties may be imposed in accordance with Article 90 of this Law. Timely return after completion: The motor vehicle shall be promptly returned to the party concerned after providing the corresponding certificates and marks or completing the necessary procedures.

I've been commuting by motorcycle for three years and frequently refuel at various gas stations. I can confidently say the vast majority of stations are happy to serve motorcycles without any discrimination, since they're legitimate vehicles. However, I've noticed some minor details: Gas station nozzles are typically designed larger, so when filling a motorcycle's small tank, you should pump slowly rather than dumping fuel in all at once to avoid gasoline splashing onto your pants – that smell is unpleasant. Also, always turn off the engine – this safety rule is crucial as sparks could ignite the fuel. I recommend visiting stations during off-peak hours when it's less crowded; staff tend to be more patient and refueling goes smoother. Additionally, always double-check that your gas cap is securely closed after refueling – once I forgot and my whole bike wobbled while riding, scaring me into pulling over immediately. In short, gas stations definitely serve motorcycles without issue; it's just part of the regular riding routine.

As someone who has worked at a gas station, I'm used to motorcycle customers coming to refuel—it's completely routine with no special restrictions or extra charges. However, motorcycle tanks are much smaller, so we usually remind them to use a slow-speed nozzle or manually control the flow to avoid spillage or dirtying the ground. For safety, the engine must be turned off, and customers must dismount and remove their helmets while refueling—otherwise, accidents can happen. Once, I encountered a novice rider who didn't shut off the engine and nearly caused a small incident, but luckily, we stopped it in time. During peak hours, cars might get priority, but overall, motorcycles can refuel at any gas station. Riders are just advised to plan their routes in advance, choose well-marked stations, and avoid queuing on main roads to prevent traffic disruptions.

I prioritize riding safety and always ensure attention to detail when refueling. Gas stations provide standard services for motorcycles, but it's crucial to be aware of potential risks: the engine must be completely shut off, and using phones or smoking is strictly prohibited on the premises, as these can trigger fires. I once experienced an overfilled tank where gasoline splashed onto my clothes—fortunately, there were no sparks, or the consequences could have been dire. I recommend choosing gas stations with pump nozzles better suited for small tanks or asking staff for assistance, as they are experienced. Additionally, regularly check the tank's seal to prevent gasoline leaks that could affect your ride. Safety comes first, and these measures ensure a smooth and worry-free refueling process.
