Is a gas station responsible if you get gas in your eyes from a gas pump?

Legal rulings have been mixed.
Legal culpability usually requires that a company is "negligent" in some way. But self-service pumps generate a large number of consumer injuries each year, and generally the only warnings are those posted on signs in and around the pumps. Some courts have ruled that the consumer is taking on the burden of responsibility by using these pumps, while others have found that lack of an alternative forces gas buyers to perform an activity for which they are ill-trained, and thereby poorly-qualified to judge the safety of their actions.
* One of the two states to still prohibit self-service fueling is New Jersey. In 2016, Oregon enacted an exception to its ban that affects some smaller communities (tribal lands were already exempt).
