Drive Moment - Does The Price Of Petrol Impact Your Lifestyle?

Loading player...

SA's petrol price may be in for a big jump as of next month, and as much as we need petrol to drive around, it can feel like petrol is taking us for a ride.
End of week data from the Central Energy Fund (CEF) shows that fuel price recoveries remain tilted to towards under-recoveries-between 86 and 93 cents per litre for petrol, and around R1.10 per litre for diesel. When the petrol price increases, how does this influence your lifestyle? Are there places that you stop going to as often or at all? Does it change the way you drive and where you drive to, and why you drive? The Drive 959 Family weighed in!
