Think $4.07 a Gallon is Bad? Gas Prices Hit $14.74 in England!

That's not a misprint, gas prices rose to nearly £2 per liter (over £7 per gallon, or $14.74 USD) in Devon, England as supplies were drastically cut following a strike by Shell tanker drivers.

Nearly 380 gas stations have experienced drastic shortages or have closed all together. One petrol station manager, Ron James told BBC:
"It's all been panic buying... People have been coming in buying £80 to £100 of fuel instead of £10 and £20." He added: "We cannot get any more supplies, we're not being mean... The price will go back to normal as soon as we get a delivery."
