A. It caused fuel shortages.
During the oil embargo imposed by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in the 1970s, there were significant fuel shortages across the United States, including Washington. The embargo resulted in limited availability of gasoline, long lines at gas stations and rationing, impacting daily life and industries reliant on fuel in the region.
