Anyone been/going to France with the Petrol crisis?

[Bretty]

I've been touring France most of this week. Every other garage is fine, some have a 3or4 car queue, some limit you to just 20ltrs. I've been from Roscoff to Marseille across into Italy. No dramas! I carry 2x1ltr emergency bottles and have only used them twice and didn't really need to, I just don't like waiting to run out. Garages in busy places (not much of France but in the busy towns or rush hour auto routes) seem to be the worst, garages in the middle of nowhere are generally shut.

I met some poor bloke on a buell on Tuesday reckoned he had ran out twice on the motorway, he'd just been given a litre by the police to get him to the services we were at.. but they had no fuel.
