UK fuel shortage: Long petrol station queues as drivers defy appeals not to panic buy
-Queues of cars have been spotted outside petrol stations across the country as motorists fear supplies of fuel might run low, but government and petrol suppliers say the issue will blow over
英国燃料短缺：加油站排起了长长的队伍，司机们无视不要恐慌性购买的呼吁
——全国各地的加油站外都出现了汽车长队，司机们担心燃油供应可能会不足，但政府和汽油供应商表示，这个问题将会平息
(Drivers queueing for petrol in Tonbridge, Kent)
（在肯特郡的汤布里奇，司机在排队加油）
新闻简介：
当加油站关闭的消息传出后，司机们在今早恐慌性地购买汽油和柴油。
在布莱顿、肯特和利兹的加油站，司机们排成了长龙。
英国石油、埃索和乐购已经关闭了一小部分加油站，原因是缺乏运送燃料的卡车司机。
但司机们被警告不要反应过度和抢购燃料。
首相的一位发言人表示，政府承认“英国许多行业都面临着问题，不仅仅是货车司机”。
英国最大的燃油物流公司之一霍耶透露，该公司“难以交货”。
该公司找不到足够的油罐车司机来运送燃料，据说每天所需的400至450名司机通常缺少20个。
英国石油英国零售业务主管汉娜·霍费尔上周在一次政府会议上表示，形势“很糟糕，非常糟糕”。
该公司表示，多达100个加油站至少缺少一种级别的燃料。它已经开始定量供应汽油了。
由于供应问题，一些工厂已经被迫完全关闭了。

When the first people start panic buying it kinda creates a prisoners dilemma; "I don't want to hoard fuel, but if everyone else is there won't be any fuel for me if I don't"
当第一批人开始恐慌性购买时，就会造成囚徒困境：“我不想囤积燃料，但如果其他人都囤积，那我就得不到燃料了。”

我只是在等周一，到时候我可以跟老板说对不起，我的车油箱空了，没有柴油可以加了，我总不能走路去上班吧，对吧？

Hi Tim, This is not the go get attitude we aspire to within the brand family. The walk will only take 4 hours each way we need you in.

When the toilet paper panic buying happened there was a really good article posted here. It takes something like 5% of people to panic buy for that to have a knock on effect of reasonable people panicking and buying too. Once it hits that point it just keeps going and going.
当卫生纸抢购事件发生时，有一篇很好的文章。说大概要有5%的人会恐慌性购买才会对理性的人也产生连锁反应。一旦到达那个临界点，抢购就停不下来了。

Although, I guess people can fill up their spare rooms with toilet paper, whereas the amopunt of storage people have for fuel is a bit more limited.
不过，我想人们可以用厕纸填满他们的空余房间，但人们储存燃料的空间有点有限。

I fill up every two weeks. Tank was near empty and today was the day to fill up.
Got to the petrol station and had some lunatic screaming at me about panic buying lol. Nah, people still need fuel, even when some people want 3 slices at the pizza party.
我每两周加一次油。油箱差不多空了，今天该加满了。
到了加油站，有个疯子冲着我尖叫，说我抢购了，呵呵。不，人们还是需要燃料的，即使有些人想在披萨派对上吃三块。

You know the panic buying is bad when you witness an ambulance being turned away at the pump.
当你看到一辆救护车在加油站被拒绝时，你就知道抢购是件坏事了。

Surprised certain stations havent been reserved for emergency services
令人惊讶的是，有些车站竟然没有专门为紧急服务而设立通道

Worked at a petrol station the last time there was panic buying years ago and everywhere ran out. We let our tanks run down to the minimum they can safely pump then closed them off. We let emergency services take fuel from the last tank which we closed off to the public early.
我在加油站工作，上一次出现恐慌性购买是在几年前，当时所有加油站都卖光了。我们让我们的油罐保持最低限度，这样它们就能安全地泵送然后关闭。我们让紧急服务人员从最后一个油罐里取油，这个油罐我们提前关闭了，不对外泵油。

Last one I remember was the early 2000s, my mum was a community nurse and got loads of gobshites berating her for filling up!
I was fit enough to cycle 6 miles to and from work so it didn't affect me too much.
我记得的最后一次油荒是在21世纪初，我妈妈是一名社区护士，当时很多人都在骂她加得太多！
我的身体状况很好，可以骑6英里的自行车上下班，所以这对我没有太大影响。

Good on you. I find that cycling to work saves you having to do your daily exercise (if you're that way inclined) and makes you sleep a whole lot better that evening.
I genuinely think most people could easily do a six, eight, maybe even a ten mile cycle (not a doctor, take medical advice first if you're new to exercise!) - but it's just the "fuck factor" of having to get up that little bit earlier every day. On the days I cycle to work for a 6am start, it's a bit of a bastard waking up an hour earlier but it's nice getting to work, having a shower at the office, and turning up to my desk feeling fresh as fuck.
That said, it isn't for everyone. Well worth a try though.
祝福你。我发现骑车上班节省了你每天的锻炼（如果你有这种倾向的话），而且让你晚上睡得更好了。
我真的认为大多数人都可以轻松地完成6英里，8英里，甚至10英里的自行车（我不是医生，如果你是刚开始锻炼的话，先听取医生的建议！）——但这只是每天不得不早起一点点的“tmd因素”。在我每天早上6点骑自行车去上班的日子里，早一个小时起床有点很不爽，但上班很愉快，在办公室里洗个澡，然后走到办公桌前，感觉精神抖擞。
也就是说，它并不适合所有人。不过还是值得一试的。

Can't speak about everywhere but ambulances and police have their own fueling stations they can use specifically for them that aren't open to the public, fuel would be prioritised going there rather than to a retail site.
The only reason they use retail stations is to prevent the need for them going back to a station repeatedly throughout the night when they can get petrol anywhere with a fuel card.
So there is a contingency in place, it's just not retail sites.
不能说到处都是这样，但是救护车和警察有他们自己的加油站，它们可以专门为它们服务，不向公众开放，燃料也将优先到那里，而不是零售站点。
它们使用零售加油站的唯一原因是，当它们可以用加油卡在任何地方加油时，它们不需要整夜反复回到自己的加油站。
所以是有一个应急措施的，只是不是在零售站点。

This used to be the case but over the last 10-20 years a lot (perhaps the majority) have been removed or are no longer used.
过去是这样，但在过去的10-20年里，很多（可能是大多数）专门加油站已经被取消或不再使用了。

All day Friday it was on the radio, “fueling stations are closing and there’s a shortage” then right at the end of the day they’re like… why yall panic buying for
周五一整天广播里都在说，“加油站正在关闭，供应短缺”，然后在一天结束的时候，他们还在想，你们为什么要恐慌性购买

I think the media are 100% to blame for this. 2 BP fueling stations could not get fuel so had to close for a day and the reporting of it caused this.
我认为这完全是媒体的责任。两家英国石油的加油站无法获得燃料，因此不得不关闭一天，这就是媒体报道造成的。

It was amazing how quick the panic took hold. I drove to work at 7am on Friday morning and it was absolutely fine, I drove past three petrol stations and no queues at all. Then there was a report of the two BP petrol stations closed due to unrelated reasons. Then I happened to be out again at 3am this morning passing the same 24hr stations and they were all closed.
令人惊讶的是，恐慌如此迅速地蔓延开来了。周五早上7点我开车去上班，天气非常好，我开车经过三个加油站，根本没有排队。随后有报道称，英国石油公司的两家加油站不相关的原因关闭了。今天凌晨3点，我碰巧又出去了，经过同样的24小时车站，但它们都关闭了。

Good Morning Britain were reporting on 'potential' fuel shortages heavily on friday morning. By about 11am the Daily Mail had photos of small queues at petrol stations. I said at that point to my partner that you could see the panic buying being fuelled (if you'll excuse the pun). By the Evening petrol stations were selling out.
So fucking stupid and completely drummed up by the same right wing bellends that drove panic buying in the first pandemic.
周五早上，《早安英国》报道了“潜在的”燃油严重短缺。上午11点左右，《每日邮报》刊登了加油站前排起小长龙的照片。我当时对我的搭档说，你可以看到恐慌性购买正在加剧（fuelled）（请原谅我的双关语）。到了晚上，加油站的汽油就都卖光了。
太他妈愚蠢了，完全还是被第一次大流行时引发恐慌性购买的右翼势力鼓动的。
