Oil giant BP temporarily closes forecourts in Britain due to shortage of lorry drivers

Oil giant BP said on Thursday it had temporarily closed some of its UK petrol stations because of a shortage of lorry drivers.

The company had similar disruption problems in July and it says the issue isn't a shortage of diesel and petrol but the lack of trucks to get the fuel to the forecourts.
