Diesel’s nearly up to the $3 mark here in Australia.

Is that per litre? I bloody hope so cuz it's just a little higher per litre in the UK. If it's per gallon I'm gonna bang my head on something. As you say though, it's not actually stunningly high - it reached almost $4 aud back in 2022. But, Saudi's are saying it very well might triple if things don't end quick!

Can you blame people for hoarding fuel

My mum's reporting first reports of people stealing via siphoning, fuel from random cars. Mental.

100 km zone on the Great Ocean Road where speeding up makes very little difference at all.

Time = Distance / Speed!

If you go 40mph instead of 20mph, you save 15 minutes.
If you go 80mph instead of 60mph, you save 2.5 minutes.

Diminishing returns.
