    This thread is nothing to do with tyres.

    transport: prices, overall, rose by 0.7% between November and December 2012 compared with a rise of 2.2% in 2011, resulting in a downward contribution of 0.23 percentage points to the change in the CPI 12-month rate...

    Motor fuels also had a downward contribution. Petrol prices fell by 2.8 pence per litre between November and December 2012 compared with a fall of 1.1 pence per litre a year earlier. Diesel prices fell by 1.4 pence per litre in 2012 compared with a rise of 0.1 pence per litre a year earlier.

    Goes a little contrary to the myths pedelled by the papers.

    Meanwhile, rail fares have increased by more than 4% this month, and more than 6% last year.
    Lothian buses standard adult fare went up by nearly 8% last year; the Day Ticket went up by more than 9%.
