California's fuel system is under pressure, not because demand has fallen, but because the path from oil to fuel has narrowed. What happens when pipelines shut down and oil that once flowed underground now requires nearly 100 trucks a day on Kern County roads? Steve Layton, president of E&B Natural Resources, explains how recent infrastructure changes are affecting how oil moves through the state, with consequences that tend to surface quietly before they become visible to the public.

Good for truck drivers. But, it's bad because it is much less efficient to ship by truck. That's going to drive up the cost of gas/fuel. Once again California got exactly what they voted for.

Just wait.
They are actively trying to get the trucks stopped also.

What happens to California when there is NO fuel?
There aren't enough electric cars, and certainly not enough electric grid, to keep people moving.

The good people of the state of california can deny reality all they want. They can't avoid the consequences of denying reality.
