Man does 'CPR' on car while woman pumps petrol

A READER saw this man performing what looked like CPR on his new Volkswagen (VW) Beetle while his girlfriend pumped petrol at a kiosk in Johor Bahru, Stomp reported.

Some drivers do this in the belief that it will let them pump more petrol than is normally possible. Petrol is cheaper in Malaysia because of the weaker ringgit.

The reader, who went by the nickname Derick, said the man was sitting on the car boot when he drove into the petrol station.

"He then got off and started pumping his hands on the car boot, as if doing CPR," Derick said,

"The girlfriend was pumping petrol while the guy continued pumping his hands on the vehicle."

Said Derick: "When I had finished pumping my petrol and driven off, they were still in the midst of [pumping petrol]."
