The graph below gives information about how much people in the United States and the United Kingdom spend on petrol.

The line graph compares the proportion of income spent on petrol by the Americans and British in terms of socioeconomic status.

Overall, as people get wealthier in the USA they spent less on petrol but in the UK it is a reverse trend. It is also noticeable that the poorest Americans spent the most on petrol.

The spending on petrol by the poorest Americans was 4 times bigger than the poorest British, at nearly 4% and about 1% respectively. As the poor Americans' level of income improves their spending on petrol rose to just over 5%, and this figure decreased steadily, in contrast to British wherein their spending grew consistently as they become richer. Despite the difference on trends, both countries spending on petrol was the same as people reached the upper border of middle-income, at almost 4%.

Rich people in both countries spent around 4% on petrol, however, in the USA as they move to the richest category their spending dropped continuously to just over 2%, whereas in the UK it level off, after which it declined to just over 3%.
