No. Petrol is short for petroleum, and it is the British word for gasoline. It is not a tax.
The Gas Tax is a tax imposed on most petrol or gas distributors and passed on to consumers. The tax is only used for petrol sold to vehicles that are intended for transportation.

------------------------- As of October 2010, the average price for a litre of Petrol in the UK is £1.199 The cost would be split as follows Product = 39.85p Retail and Distribution = 5p Fuel Duty = 57.19p (tax) VAT = 17.86p (tax) 75.05p in tax or 62.6% ------------------------- Assuming lines 1 to 6 are correct, line seven is TOTALLY misleading. This makes people think tax on petrol is 62%. Whereas the person means 62% of the total. The actual percentage is 75.05/44.85x100% = 167% tax So tax on a MARS bar = 17.5% Tax on petrol = 167% Fair? When was the last time a politician was honest enough to mention percentage tax. Instead they say 3p added per litre, etc. A couple of years ago the petrol was only about 20p, which made the percentage tax around 500%!
