No it has been rising pretty much the same way like in the US, but the last few years its been awful. The prices have nearly tripled.

I've went from driving exactly 1 mile to work to about 22-25 miles now...and of course I get this new job just as fuel prices start to take off.

Up until a couple weeks ago I couldn't tell you which side of my car to put fuel in...but now I know it all too well

Yes. Gas used to be pocket cash. Now I have to plan to be sure I have enough money with me.

You guys should do what alot of my teachers do. They ride a bike or walk to school. If it was a nice day they would walk or ride to school. I like to walk too but car just makes my day lol.

If we had better public transportation here, I'd be using it. And depending on how far my job is, I would walk when the weather is nice, but during the summer its like a sauna outside. But something definitely has to be done about gas prices.

I would do that but the problem with me is that i live in the middle of nowhere. The nearest store which is also a gas station is about 4 or 5 miles. People living out here in rural areas don't really have the pleasures of public transportation unless were still in school and use school buses, but other then that we have to rely on cars
