Default Odd behaviour

Just got back from taking the dog for a walk and as I came past the servo I was amused at the sight of an elderly gentleman wrestling with the bowser hose trying to stretch it over his boot and into the tank on the far side (from the bowser) of the car.

Normally I wouldn't find that at all amusing, but in this case the servo was empty except for this one vehicle. As I went past I could see it was never going to happen, he was parked too far from the bowser, so I kept watching out of interest. Eventually, he came to the same realisation as me but I was still slack-jawed as I watched him drive off, do a 3 point turn and come back from the other end of the servo at a bowser on the other side of the driveway. Personally, I would've driven forward and reversed back on the other side of the same bowser but hey, what do I know?

Anyone else find that odd?
