The tension in the supply of fuel in no way justifies the jump in prices at some gas stations. We do not allow artificially inflated prices. I urged DGCCRF to act. Inspections take place in @hautsdefrance https://t.co/RXJWH912tA

The situation at the service station is finally starting to improve, although it is still a bit tense in places. After about a month of strike, most refineries and oil depots have finally resumed operations, and the pumps have started restocking. As a result, queues become shorter, and fuel is easier to find. Even better, the price has even dropped a bit! But that was not really the case a few days ago, when the French were very preoccupied with the All Saints’ Day festivities, which began this Saturday morning. So much so that tourism specialists recorded about 60% of cancellations a few days before the main departures.
While the European Union has banned the sale of internal combustion cars from 2035, France still practices “terminal hunting”. Educational review@oubertalli. #OnEstNotSortisDesRonces https://t.co/uT3qUEjNe6

Train as a solution
Nevertheless, many French people decided not to give up their well-deserved vacation. But scalded by the situation, many eventually decided to leave the car in the garage for the time being. And to go, to go green, that’s why the train had all the favors of the train drivers, while the SNCF sold over a million tickets, i.e. 10% more than in the corresponding period last year. At the Europe 1 microphone, a vacationer says that “the train is still expensive, but it can be cheaper than a car, especially when you’re alone.” It must be said that ticket prices have also risen sharply in recent months.

Many benefits
But in addition to the fact that the train allows you to save fuel in your car, it has many other advantages. Indeed, this decision is also a lot faster than going on the roadas noted by another traveler interviewed by our colleagues ” I go to Lyon by TGV in 2 hours, and I will put five on the car“. Undoubtedly, the stations are also worth storming in the coming weekend. Therefore, it is better to take measures so as not to be late for the train!
