QLD: Spike in oil prices bad news for motorists
Motorists are being warned the spike in international oil prices spells means more
bad news at the petrol bowser.
GARY FITES of the RACQ .. says Queensland consumers enjoy the cheapest petrol in Australia
because of a state government subsidy.
But with oil now over 70 US dollars a barrel .. he says they won't be protected from
further price rises either.
In Brisbane .. motorists are paying around one-dollar-18 a litre for regular unleaded
petrol .. and in regional areas well over one-dollar- 20.
