Petrol Prices could be £1.20 by end of the Year

Just what we all want to hear. According to The Telegraph it has said that petrol is very likely to go up, what with VAT going back up to 17.5% on September 1st. Which mean at the end of August prices could go up to 105.5p per litre.The RAC have said that if the VAT does return to 17.5% then petrol could hit the £1.20 mark by the end of December. Let's not forget it peaked £1.40 last year!The average price of a litre of unleaded is currently 103.9p but drivers are paying much more in some parts of Britain.I personally think it's unfair that prices are quick to go up when crude oil increases, but we fail to see the decrease just as quickly when crude oil falls.My question is, why ever build a car in the first place in history when all it is doing is ripping people off today? A car is supposed to make life easier for travellers, not ridiculously expensive. I might invest in a horse and carriage, it may be much cheaper to run, I might time how long it takes me to get to work via Horse Riding...
