SACRAMENTO, Oct. 5 (UPI) -- Gasoline stations in parts of California stopped selling fuel because of high prices, though one independent analyst said the problem was short term.
Motor group AAA reports the average retail price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in California was $4.48, compared to a national average of $3.78. Customers in the San Francisco area were paying, on average, $4.59 per gallon of regular unleaded.
