At a time when countries are introducing measures to deal with rising fuel prices, there are crazy videos of people who have gone too far. Stunning new video captures the moment a British driver fills orange plastic supermarket bags with petrol at a petrol stationwrites the diary. Hundreds of people harshly criticized the driver online.
The incredible footage showed the terrified woman filling shopping bags with petrol and slowly placing them in the boot of her car without even tying them down! The woman left another driver confused and the video has already been viewed by more than 10 million people online.
“This is just selfish. Look at her utter desperation. We won’t run out of gas baby,” wrote a man who saw the video. Another person paused at her strange idea of leaving open bags in the trunk. “What does he think will happen when he turns the corner?” he asked in disbelief. “Gasoline will corrode these plastic bags,” bellowed another harshly futile effort.
Rising oil prices caused by the war in the Middle East also caused a nationwide fuel crisis and panic buying in Britain. Iran has effectively blocked the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world’s oil trade normally passes, by bombing ships and making other vessels afraid to pass. A female driver in the United Kingdom was criticized for her behavior on the Internet the shocking way it responded to rising fuel prices. You can find the VIDEO at the end of the article.

On Sunday, the price of diesel in Britain reached 181.2p (about €2,080) per liter – a 27 percent increase from 142.4p (about €1,635) when the war began on February 28. Gasoline rose to 152p (approx. 1,635 euros) per liter on average, an increase of 14 percent. Drivers tried to fill up full tanks for fear of supplies and prices.
