From my very limited knowledge;
It is not a law but a condition imposed by the retailer for doing business with them.
If it is a condition, to be enforceable it should be displayed at the point of consumption ie the bowser, and not at the door entrance when you have already filled the tank. Similar to car parks having to display their conditions at the entrance and not at the exit.
I suspect you would still be charged with theft if you refused to remove your helmet but offered to pay and the attendant refused to accept the $. The co would certainly want to push there case for security. My guess is there is a good chance you would win the case (but im not a lawyer) but still have to pay legal feesetc.
Anyone want to be a test case?
