Hide AdCars were seen driving into the garage and immediately leaving again as drivers realised they could not fill up their cars there.
Last Friday, motorists were seen queuing at a Jet petrol station in Crookes amid a national spate of panic buying of fuel.
Drivers have been advised not to fill up outside of their normal routine and a number 10 offered assurances that there were sufficient fuel stocks in the UK.
However, there are concerns that as panic buying continues essential workers such as NHS staff may struggle to do their jobs without access to fuel.
