After Sandy hit NJ, a lot of gas stations installed generators to keep the pumps going in case a storm hits again.
Red, yellow and green flags, odd and even license plates. Ah, the good old days.They took care of line jumpers back during the 70's fuel lines...

We probably had the 10 gallon limit too, but I was driving Corvairs during both gas shortages and about 10 topped the tanks off.You left out the 10-gallon limit. Or was that just a Dallas thing?
It's not mandatory, but if the stations get a genset, they get assistance from the state.Since hurricane Sandy I believe New Jersey now has a requirement that gas stations in that state have backup generators so they can continue to pump gas if the power is out.
