Gas Rations Begin in New York

Posted: Updated:

Gas rationing started this morning in New York City and Long Island where about 11 million people live. The restrictions were imposed to reduce long lines at stations. New Jersey started rationing last weekend in some counties, and it helped shrink the miles long gas lines that started after Super Storm Sandy disrupted fuel deliveries, and cut power to filling stations. It's also helping stations hang on to their supplies a little longer. Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the rationing system will not likely end soon.
