Why do motorway service areas not advertise the make of fuel they are providing on the notices indicating that a service area is coming up? I use the motorway system and I have a company fuel card for only one fuel company. The signs advertise the make of burgers, rolls and/or coffee available so why not the make of fuel?

My problem, too. There is probably some ridiculous law in some cobwebby book of Dogma rigidly enforced by some jobsworth that prevents this. But if they can advertise M&S, Costa Coffee and other caterers, then why can't they advertise the brand of fuel?
