A Welsh police team dubbed "the Frying Squad" has been formed to sniff out
motorists who fuel their cars with cooking oil from fish and chip shops in a
bid to avoid paying high government fuel taxes.


Three Welsh motorists have already been caught and fined for using waste oil
from restaurants selling Britain's favorite deep-fried dish, the Times
newspaper reported Wednesday.

"I have halved my motoring costs since I started running my Subaru on
cooking oil," the paper quoted one of those stopped as saying.

"The car runs just as well and even smells a lot better than diesel."

The drivers were fined 500 pounds ($780) and warned that persistent
offenders may face up to seven years in jail.
