Drive Moment - Does The Price Of Petrol Impact Your Lifestyle?

Loading player...
SA's petrol price may be in for a big jump as of next month, and as much as we need petrol to drive around, it can feel like petrol is taking us for a ride.

Does it change the way you drive and where you drive to, and why you drive? The Drive 959 Family weighed in!
