Wow.
No wonder everyone there walks or rides a bike. I thought it was just because of all the drinking and DUI charges.

Drink driving is a serious crime over here
You can have one 275ml bud before driving or the equivalent of, anymore is over the limit.

But without tax it would cost less than $2 per gallon

fuel cost £1.18 a litre
Fuel tax= 54p per liter
V.A.T (sales tax)=17.5%
garage profit= 2p per liter

price without tax 46p per liter

also car tax (like stamp duty for cars)= £120 per year

edit: actually that works out as $3 per US gallon
