Some engineer at Toyota caught this possibilty and the fuel door won't open when the car is in motion (or in gear...I don't know which.) My hope is next time I'll grab the hood release and pop it while doing 40+miles per hour. It's always cool to be driving around with the hood rattling on the safety catch, huh?
