Atlanta (Alpharetta) Gas Shortage

[VollgasHero]

Looks like Milton lol

[lostindiancamp]

Why do so many people feel they have to keep music blaring in their car while filming a video? Annoying.

[Peace2143]

I totally waited in that line at that quick trip lol!

[myhungryhippo]

terrible music

[OMFGJoshuaAaron]

i saw like 10 cars, everything else was ranging from Navigators to Hummers! I think everyone should drive a Toyota, Honda, or Kia. LOL

[Jenabzadeh1]

Whoooo Yeah Johns Creek baby

[Piercedpixie56]

hey i live near there :)

[TrowBridgeWhat]

THE SHEEPLE BEG FOR MORE PUNISHMENT

[leiftard]

WHAT

[ocedreku]

start a new war for gas and its neger going to hapen again

[turkicguru]

i remember that days... horrible... hope never happens again lol

[CnLopez101]

Ha! I live like right off Devore Rd. Shit is retarded. There were some lanes open and idiots only took the ones in the front. Took them nearly 2 hours to fill up when it took me 5 minutes.

[FriendlyArmenian]

Awesome! I'm up off exit 11. :-)

[xheathergx]

Did that gas station even have that much gas?!?! Haha... Someone was probably fighting over the last gallon!!!

[gumpdy]

boysetsfire!

[Fishburn]

QT FTW>

[andy1004800]

what a bunch of idiots, waiting in line that long just for gas ???

[cabbageholetv]

THIS IS BANANAS. I cant believe people would wait in line. Did they run out before getting gas

[anthonycut]

Less moving parts, simple design, batteries held under a patent, created under Clinton, CRUSHED under Bush

The 2000 Ford Ranger EV NiMH....Ford built, Toyota batteries..Chevron owns the patent!

The vehicle Ford wants you to forget about.

[clubhp12]

lol guy with hummer man GOOD GAME!

[mikhal77]

hahaha.thats whats we've experienced 20 years ago in poland.

[hellzone100]

begining of the end of are economy and are world

[imbords]

dear jesus

[IG2HI]

I hate that I got forclosed on. I truly miss ATL now.

[discountninjah]

Hahaha, good, I'm glad your house was foreclosed. It wasn't even your house. Maybe now you'll start working on your credit rating and get a real mortgage, loser.

[mjamerson81]

you sir are a dumb ass

[Joekitty001]

I saw a long line at a QT but it wasn't THAT long!

[cocoskin305]

Reminds me of Miami after a hurricane

[psncoolpj]

Yo i live in adairsville, GA aint far away...We got same problem...But problem is kinda settling down...But the only thing now left is THERE IS NO SUPREME GAS?! My Mustang GT needs Supreme :(

[unclestuntman]

Hell Naw!! I'd be riding a bike too.

[hraith]

Whee! Keep America beautiful.

[hepcatintheworld]

Spread out, sure - but why anyone needs a Hummer or SUV unless they're out commuting in muddy off-road conditions every day is beyond me.

[kxnipt]

For f%ck sake would somebody please come up with a replacement for the internal combustion engine.

[morales760]

they have electric cars

[smit1807]

It's called a bike, or your shoes. Duh. Live near work. Near your library, your school, your grocery store, your hardware store. If you don't, then move. Or maybe you should have in the first place. I feel sorry for these suburbanites in the video. Poor fools.

[rocksmell]

i think you should also have added the no of cars u passed by

[AlpharettaTube]

Check the description: 93 cars.

[benkse2010]

@rocksmell wat song is this



[aquilonian]

I have a road bike, and a motorized bicycle that gets 220 miles to the gallon. Gas also means jack shit to me.

[AtlRacerBoyz]

Bicycle FTW!!!

I have a motorcycle and a road bike. Gas means jack shit to me!!!

[Atlfinest13]

i live in Alpharetta

i havent seen a line like that for gas

nice video

[tr0ublecat]

Actually a friend rides a bike and road from Acworth to Downtown ATlanta via bike and bus and took only 3 hours to get from point a to point be so yes riding a bike is viable as is public transport.

Also other friends have a Mercedes Deisel and have had no difficulty whatsoever, they are getting ready to go to biofuel on all their vehicles.

[falcondan95705]

I AM SO HAPPY THEY HAVE NO GAS!! Thank your Democratic Party for not allowing drilling or refineries!! JUST DO WHAT OBAMA SAYS!! Put Air in your tires!!! You will get just as much Gas ,,,, Just like you went to a gas station!!!

[IAmxVertical]

Alpharetta is a predominantly Republican area...

[biggshaad]

Yea, but drilling will take a decade before you see oil. So there still won't be any gas.

[UPDABLOCKMUSIC]

Stop being scared people. Get a bike and ride it, its healthier for you anyway. If that happened in the city i will be on my bike in a heartbeat.

[MISTERBLANDINGS]

i don't mean to be a prick, but carpooling and catching the bus is good. Also if you want gas really bad, park your car and stay home from work until it's resolved, if everybody did this for three days, they'd bring the gas you need. Though it's odd that military exercises to deal with crowd control and civil unrest start in Georgia today.

[PacificoastHwy]

That's easier said than done when you live in a city like Atlanta where everything is so spread out. If I drove my bike everywhere it would take half a day just to make the journey to work, and I'm busy enough as it is. It's just not an option, but I wish it was.

[ltlnphngrphfrth1e6]

Then quit your job and get one closer to work.

[PacificoastHwy]

my job is already pretty damn close to work... just saying

[chewster1234567]

We'll its easy to say get a bike or w/e when your NOT in Atlanta. XD come to Atlanta, then see why most people wont do that :P.

[BillGrates]

How many gallons did they idle away?

[pedestrianme]

Raise the price. Gas is too cheap!

[kakaokaka]

raise the prise by 100% and 90 of them will be gone :p

[fordfasterr]

HAHAAAA

Look at all of the lemmings getting gas!!

[78smackdown]

Just for fun I counted the cars in line.

I counted 82 outside the station lot.

People appeared to be behaving. Lined up like Brits, I tell ya!

[antixbush]

Ive heard this is happening to 7 other states. But here's my question. Why is the Media ignoring it ????

[Loki431]

Yikes!

Former Alpharetta resident breathing a sigh of relief! Even though we've been paying an average of $3.80 for the last 9 months, at least we don't have gas lines.

[terry1919]

We have PLENTY of GASOLINE in ALABAMA!!!

[UbuntuMacDupe]

Yay! You have something to be proud of in Atlanta now!

[yourvillaormine]

OMG! This is really scary...that line is incredible. Thanks for posting!

[kelloggs19]

can some tell if this is related to the economy

[terry1919]

nope  Hurricane IKE

[HadleyDGRC]

I was filling at at a Chevron on Lavista yesterday. Waited only about 10 minutes. I finished out the pump.

[otpteg]

damn i just waited till sat. morning when the shit hit the fan at the Boggs RD./satelite QT on fri. night . not 93 cars like there but a good 60.I was surprised they had gas when i went at 9am

[fieryman1]

thanks for showing this. Looks as though they have something of an honor system going; no butting into the line, or at intersections, or even at the station. I would think the owner would have someone give admittance tickets however, as you drove in and no one seemed to care.

[tikinkss]

I'd be a tad worried with 500,000 FEMA coffins outside the city.

[underpaidrockstar]

The Southeast, the only region of the nation that has no oil refining or major gasoline storage capacity, pumps all of its gasoline in by pipeline.

Of course this would have been solved if it wasnt for Demoscum

[theareohbee]

Demoscum? Are those the ones that have been suckling oil teets for so long that they've been reluctant to fund alternative sources of energy? I think what you are looking for is "Of course this would have been solved if we'd have voted smarter earlier.".

[theneuch]

I would blame the situation on hurricanes rather than Democrats or Republicans.

[Teriyaki07]

As our population increases, the number of drivers using up gas increases.

Sure we can drill offshore for new oil. And in 7 to 10 years, how many new drivers will be on the road? And 10 years after that? And 10 years after that?

As illustrated by the current problem in Atlanta, we can run out of gas AT ANY TIME.

WE NEED ALTERNATIVES. IMAGINE IF GAS SPIKES TO THE POINT ONLY THE RICH CAN AFFORD IT.

IF NO ALTERNATIVES EXIST - IT WILL BE CHAOS. PEOPLE WILL STEAL GAS FROM EACH OTHER.

[Teriyaki07]

Our energy crisis is REAL!

Search YouTube for: "The Most Important Video You Will Ever See"

[Teriyaki07]

If the shortage is real, all the more reason to pursue alternative fuels NOW as if it were the space race. We need more vehicles powered by electricity and natural gas.

Refusing to vote on legislation needed to address our energy crisis not only harms our national security interest by extending the duration of US dependency on foreign countries. But, it also risks marginalizing the US in terms of which countries will be the leaders in the alternative energies that replace oil dependency.

[Teriyaki07]

Just how mad would you be if you found out the shortage was artificially manipulated by the oil companies in order to get legislation for drilling passed by congress?

Do you really think Georgia is the only state that requires cleaner burning fuel?

[leoduser]

A bike will go faster and farther than any car that runs on gas, when the gas is gone. Good video!

[ThunderPigBlog]

That has to be the LONGEST gas line I have ever seen! Thanks for posting it.

I laughed out loud when I saw that you were videoing the line while on a bicycle. I'm embedding this on my blog.

[AlpharettaTube]

haha, thanks! I stopped to talk to several of the people there (I should've filmed that too, oh well) and even they commented that I had the right idea...
