Prices that hit hard on many commuters' personal finances.
The pain limit is close now
Linus Jansson is one of many who are considering whether it is worth commuting to work.
According to him, the pain threshold is close now and the consequences can be great.
- For me, it costs SEK 3,000 per week to commute to work and that is far too much.
You have to pull in something else to be able to refuel the car and it's not fun at all.
Soon you can not afford to work because it is too expensive to drive there.
"Lower taxes!"
He believes that support packages from the government are not enough, but that taxes must be reduced.
- A reasonable and human level is fifteen kronor a liter, ie what diesel cost in January a year ago.
Right now the situation is terrible and it is not a fun expense you have to pay, says Linus Jansson.
