As a result of the recent oil crisis, 9.9 million of Canifornia’s 15 million motorists were subjected

to an odd – even plan of gas rationing. The governor signed a bill forcing motorists with license plates

ending in odd numbers to buy gas only on odd – numbered days, and those ending in even numbers on

even – numbered days. Those whose plates were all letters or specially printed had to follow the odd –

numbered plan.

Exceptions were made only for emergencies and out – of – state – drivers. Those who could not

get gas were forced to walk, bike, or skate to work.

This plan was expected to eliminate the long lines at many service stations. Those who tried to

purchase more than twenty gallons of gas or tried to fill a more than half filled tank would be fined and

possibly imprisoned.
