It's interesting that you brought that up because most fuel stations in the United States actually use vending machines as well. AFAIK, the only state in the United States that still requires an attendant to pump your gas is Oregon. In a way, even though the fuel shops I'm dealing with in Thailand are much smaller, having only 1 or 2 pumps and no parking pad or other amenities, the majority of the large name-brand stations in the U.S. could really use the same tags. They're all automated, accept credit cards, open 24/7, etc. I would of course, add brand, operator, and other descriptive tags but essentially they are the same thing.
