“While fuel prices have fallen since July, drivers are paying more for fuel than they should be as they continue to be squeezed by stubbornly high fuel margins,” said Dan Turnbull, senior director of markets at the CMA.

“The more people save on fuel, the more they have to spend in other areas”, he said.
