Is the gas price at highway service area stations the same as outside?

Gas station overview: A gas station is a refueling facility that provides retail gasoline and motor oil services for cars and other motor vehicles, typically supplying fuel oil, lubricants, etc. 2. Precautions at gas stations: Since petroleum products sold at gas stations are highly flammable, volatile, prone to leakage, and can accumulate static electricity, gas stations prioritize "safety" as their foremost principle. Open flames are strictly prohibited at gas stations, as are any operations that may generate sparks. It is forbidden to add gasoline to a car's carburetor or oil drum.
