I seem to have that problem throughout Florida. I have found that they are there more often than not at the Hess stations within Walt Disney World.I know this is the epitome of first world problems, but I always avoid Hess stations because they all seem to lack the little ridged plate in the gas pump that lets you lock in the trigger while you wash your windows, make faces at your car's occupants, etc.
Is it petty? For sure.
But I just don't want to sit there squeezing the handle the whole time I fill my car with gas, if I don't have to.

You're not fooling us. We know you go there for the cheesesteaks.For alternative gas needs, there's a Wawa at 535/Poinciana Blvd.
We never seem to have them anywhere in Massachusetts (the little auto fill latches). Maybe they are against the law at self serve. So I don't miss them there.
That is a popular spot where people do walk to for provisions from the Boardwalk area resorts. I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to walk along that road, however. Seems dangerous, but it sure is close.
I believe you are correct in that some states do ban the use of the gas-pump "trigger locks". Here in Mass pretty much all stations removed them quite a number of years ago.

They are pretty much standard at all gas stations in NC.That is actually due to local laws. Quite honestly, I do not know a city or state that allows them at self service locations.
The logic is that it avoids a person getting back in their car, building up static and then causing a fire when they grab the pump.
It also avoids someone leaving the pump unattended and having the flow back shut off fail.
There is a bit of a hack though. Most gas tank caps are just the right size to be wedged into the handle and perform the same task.
