Faced with rising petrol prices in France, motorists are doubling down on their ingenuity to save money. This is the case with this Breton, the inventor of… the water engine! https://t.co/P98rql2pON

After several weeks of lull, if not decline, fuel prices are now experiencing a new rise. A short-term respite for motorists who thus have to deal with market fluctuations under pressure for several months. And it is not for nothing that Russia significantly slowed down oil exports, thereby pushing up the price per barrel. An increase which then obviously affects the price paid at the service station. If 30 cents off will be officially implemented from tomorrow, this is unfortunately not enough to allow drivers to take pills. Especially since the price of fuel should continue to rise in the coming months.
I am introducing a bill aimed at reducing gasoline taxes in the face of record high fuel prices and taxing oil company dividends.

Diesel is on the rise
This is especially true of diesel fuel, the price of which has risen sharply in recent weeks. True, it has been more expensive than gasoline for several months, but over time the gap continues to increase. According to the Ministry of Environmental Transition, a liter of diesel fuel costs 11 cents more than last week, when it was priced at 1.95 euros. High price, and a strong difference from without lead 95, which is about 20 cents cheaper, with a liter showing at €1.78, which is still very high. We are far from the €1.20 recorded during the March 2020 containment!
Salvation
Officially installed it Thursday, September 1so a 30-cent discount on fuel should be good for motorists. This will last until next October 31st, before dropping to 10 cents in November and December, before disappearing for good. It will be valid for all fuels, even E85, LPG and CNG. It will also be compatible with the 20 cent discount that TotalEnergies offers at its service stations.
AdBlue additive is necessary for the normal operation of modern diesel engines. But its production is affected by the increase in gas prices! https://t.co/2EAeJ35XU5
