DURBAN - Motorists can expect yet another petrol price increase for May, with a slight decrease in diesel.
This was revealed by the Automobile Association (AA), which was commenting on unaudited mid-month fuel price data released by the Central Energy Fund.
According to the AA, data shows the prospect of a welcome 32 cents-a-litre drop in the price of diesel and 27c for illuminating paraffin.
AA spokesperson Layton Beard said the petrol price, however, would see a possible slight increase of 6c a litre.
Beard said stability on international petroleum markets and a stronger exchange rate had given fuel prices a breather.
