Ah, the classic fuel drive-off, or 'petrol piracy' as the cops might call it in Queensland. This cheeky act is illegal and can land you with fines or even criminal charges. Queensland police have been cracking down, often using CCTV and number plate recognition to catch the culprits. If you're caught, expect to pay for the fuel plus a hefty fine, and possibly court costs. Service stations sometimes post warnings and keep detailed records to aid enforcement. Next time, try paying before you make a run for it; your wallet and conscience will thank you.
