We're already paying USD 5.15 per gallon in Singapore. Price was increased just after Katrina struck. I'm one of eight Singaporeans stuck with a 545 gobbling up petrol at 6.1Km per Litre.

you can only start whining when your fuel prices hit around 6 bucks for a gallon.
thats what we have right now in the uk....$6.19 ish f***ing dollars per gallon of fuel i put in...
i hate this countrys absurd tax laws.
i.e. to fill up the tank costs me a whopping 113 bucks. (ish)

what im worried about is that in the uk we start at 6.20 ish....thats for regular unleaded. its closer to 6.50/6.60 for a gallon of 'bp ultimate' or shell optimax gas
that was pre katrina....as oil is increasing in price dramatically i can only assume we will go over a quid a litre soon and i will cry tears of financial blood when it comes time to fill the car.
