    So its a safety feature...
    ...again what happens if your car has exhausts on both sides?

    ...but is it a myth?

    So if you fuel filler is on the left side, the tail pipe will be on the right side.

    I've always thought that the gas filling side is opposite the tailpipe. But, my personal preference would be to have the tailpipe at the passenger side so the gas filling side is always at the driver side. That would help eliminate the quagmires at gas stations.
