I worked at a gas station in high school. I saw a few people drive off with gas handles in their car. We had break-aways on each line, but there was still about 10 feet of hose between the handle and break-away, so you'd see that bouncing along on the pavement behind the car as they'd drive off.
The biggest problem for the station manager was that replacing those handles and hoses wasn't cheap! I think it was like a $1000 "oops" in 1990 dollars, each time it happened.
Also watched a smoker set himself on fire while pumping gas once. Endlessly entertaining, since at the very moment it happened, he was commenting to his passenger on the stupidity of our "NO SMOKING" signs.

Actually this is a bad idea. The Ioniq can be damaged by this, when it causes a huge amount of current from the primary battery to instantly recharge the 12v lighting battery. That charging is usually done slowly. (source)
I'm thinking about buying an Ioniq5 like this one - but not yet.
