HAR §12-45.5-103. Fuel dispensing age limitation

Section 42.7.1.1 is amended by adding to read as follows: 42.7.1.1 Age Limitation. Persons under the eligible age to obtain a driver’s license are prohibited from dispensing fuel. [Eff ] (Auth: HRS §132-3) (Imp: HRS §132-3) (This was in the previous state fire code. It is believed that a person 15 years or older is likely to understand the dangers involved in improperly dispensing fuel into vehicles and are able to act responsibly. Further, persons of this age are eligible to test for driving permits. The age of 15 was changed to coordinate with the signage requirements in Section 42.7.2.5.4, which requires people of licensed age to dispense fuel. And if the license age changes, this still works. The original language “licensed age” was not clear & Lloyd revised).
