Petrol price shoots to all-time high

Cape Town – The petrol price increase will see motorists paying the highest at the pumps ever and it comes at a particularly bad time for consumers, experts have warned. Motorists will have to fork out an extra 36 cents a litre (c/l) for all grades of petrol, while diesel will go up by 27 and 28c/l, the department of energy announced on Friday.
