The price of diesel at the pump in the United Kingdom has hit record highs, Reuters reports, citing motoring body RAC.
Along with hitting motorists’ pockets, high diesel costs are adding to logistical and transport costs for a vast array of goods, as the fuel is widely used in industry and agriculture.
The cost of a litre of diesel is now 199.18 pence and the cost of filling up an average family car is now almost £110, £31 more than before the conflict began, Simon Williams, the RAC’s head of policy, said in the release.
