Gasoline Rationed?

In the future I saw ration books for food and fuel. Long lines to get a loaf of bread and super long lines to get fuel. The ration books were issued to the head of household and a limit was assigned based on how essential the job was and other factors.

People that had houses with even numbers got gas on even number days and houses with odd numbers on odd number days. They said that this is unfair because there are more odd days than even. Well, maybe it is time for the odd to get even!

This top link shows a similar rationing plan.

To extend their fuel people mix up to 10% alcohol with the gas, and even added paint thinner, kero, oil, etc.

Let me tell you that motorbikes are quite the popular choice.
Using astral time travel I saw the streets full of "mopeds".
