The average cost of filling a typical family car with petrol costs more than £100 for the first time, the RAC has said

The RAC has described the milestone - based on the cost of filling a 55-litre tank - as a"truly dark day for drivers". Along with the AA, it urged the government to step in, dismissing as"paltry" one measure taken by Chancellor Rishi Sunak three months ago.The average cost of filling a typical family car with petrol has surpassed £100 for the first time, the RAC has said.

Simon Williams, the RAC's fuel spokesperson, said:"It's a truly dark day today for drivers, with petrol now crossing the thoroughly depressing threshold of £100 a tank . A complete diesel fill-up now costs £103.43. In an effort to shield drivers from rising costs, Chancellor Rishi Sunak cut fuel duty by 5p three months ago, but the RAC said the measure now looks"paltry".Mr Williams urged the government to cut the duty further or to temporarily reduce VAT.

The AA echoed his calls, urging the government to cut fuel duty by 10p a litre immediately and to introduce a fuel price stabiliser, which would reduce fuel duty when prices increase and increase it when prices fall.
