Caltex chief says Australians must use less fuel
Updated
The head of Australia's largest petrol retailer has suggested motorists use less fuel, saying it is one way to reign in skyrocketing petrol prices.
Caltex chief, Des King, says all motorists can do now is reduce their demand.
"I think all of us can do something to become more energy efficient ... that helps on the demand side," he said.
"The whole world is going to have to live differently."
He says given world oil prices have doubled in the past year, reports of further dramatic price hikes are not inconceivable.
