The government’s FuelCheck website and accompanying app from the NRMA allows motorists to get live price data.
NRMA president Kyle Loader and Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation Victor Dominello both called FuelCheck and the app a “game changer”.
Mr Loader said not only would people be able to easily find the cheapest fuel in the city, but it could also help to drive prices down.
For too long people in Western NSW have been forced to live with high fuel prices.
- NRMA president Kyle Loader
“For too long people in Western NSW have been forced to live with high fuel prices and had no option but to drive around if they wanted to compare prices.”
“Now they can check every service station in one place in real time. And if they are travelling from one town to another, they can compare the two and find where is best to fill up.
Mr Dominello said service stations were legally required to update their prices with FuelCheck within 15 minutes of changing the price.
Motorists are being encouraged to report non-complying stations and provide feedback on the website.
