Fuel stations in the Paris region were starting to run low on petrol and diesel on Thursday due to strike action by fuel tanker drivers contracted to TotalEnergies.
Deliveries from two fuel depots - Gennevilliers and Coignières - which service the Paris region, have been affected by a blockade by drivers, leading to shortages in some fuel stations around the capital.
In a statement released on Monday, the union CGT Transports, called on hauliers under contracts with the TotalEnergies energy giant to walk out in protest of plans to instal cameras inside of transport lorries.
The devices are intended to alert drivers when they become too sleepy or inattentive, and according to Total Energies, they do not actively record the inside of the cabin.
