On: Why Some Cars Have Gas Tank Fillers on the Left or the Right

[cwmma]

More specifically

Drivers side is more convenient, but passengers side is safer if you every have to fill a car up by hand on the side of the road

Is there a specific reason why drivers side is more convenient? Only because it doesn't make you walk around the car? Mine is on the passengers side and it never even occurred to me that having it on the drivers side would be more convenient.

don't have to walk around the car and also so you can line it up better
