I'm forever getting ragged on for suggesting that people fill their tanks whenever they hit the half mark. Now you know one of the reasons. Earthquake, fire, flood, tornado, hurricane, medical emergency are some other good ones.
Never mind the mechanical aspects like keeping the fuel pump submerged so it's cooled and lubricated, keeping any sediment on the bottom of the tank, not frying the ECU if you run out of gas, etc.
People also need to realize that their safety blanket of a cellphone will be rendered useless almost immediately in a real crisis like this.
