Fuel Crisis: Cape Town running on empty

Terri-Liza Fortein and Candice Bailey, reporting for IOL, describe how hundreds of motorists are being turned away from service stations across Cape Town, due to the severe shortage of petrol.

A petrol industry source confirmed that there was a petrol shortage as the refinery was preparing to bring in clean fuels next month - a bit longer than had been expected.
