Call a beekeeper!

Rhonwyn Newson Reporter from Rodney Times

Poll: Will you drive out of your way to avoid paying the Auckland fuel tax?

Jay Boreham Reporter from Rodney Times

The 10 cent Auckland fuel tax will mean pump prices are much cheaper 10km across Auckland's northern border at Kaiwaka. Using AA calculations for medium sized vehicles it would only cost an extra $1.69 to drive the 10km. Would you drive the extra distance for cheaper fuel?

  • 0% Yes. I'd drive further for cheaper fuel and avoid the tax.
    0% Complete
  • 75% NO. I'd take the hit and fillup at my local station for convenience sake
    75% Complete
  • 25% I'll use my Northland station then, as it won't be cheaper in Auckland anymore.
