I don't think it would have helped out the town centre much if at all. When I go supermarket shopping that is all I do. I don't go and fill up the car and then want a walk around the shops after.

Maybe a yellow box would help at the exit but I think many people would ignore it. Maybe they could put extra traffic lights just before the petrol exit. Then cars would have to stop before the exit and those getting petrol could come out and stop at the current lights - I suppose some ignorant idiots would drive through the petrol bit to get in front of a few cars though. Trouble is many traffic systems rely on the general public being considerate - unfortunately quite a few drivers are ignorant idiots (me included sometimes).
