That's very scary, especially if you're running near empty. Ouch – I’ve never come across an empty gas station ( at least not yet ). That’s very scary, especially if you’re running near empty.

These are the first times I've seen this. Are the prices too low to keep track of demand? I don't mind paying more for gas, as long as I don't have to drive around to find a station with available gas. The stations had premium gas available, but I'm always using Flexcar and they require that I use regular gas.

The recent situation just proves that - the public needs a reason other than "We use too much gas, and world demand is increasing, so use less". I'm not sure the US public can really handle that just yet.. but maybe soon. I always thought that the refinery excuse was just that, an excuse.
