Same here. I saw diesel gets sold for less than one euro per liter (about $4 a gallon) at some stations, but gas still is 1.36 €/l ($5.50/gallon) at the cheapest.
It was like 1.80 €/l when oil was $100 a barrel...
Gas won't sink below the 1 euro per liter mark here until the oil price sinks below 30 dollars in the negative (i.e. you get $30 for taking a barrel)!
At least some of that tax money gets spent on new and better roads, my commute has seen steady improvements for that.
Two days ago a new section of road opened to ease traffic congestion at the east of Gouda, one month ago a second highway between Delft and Rotterdam opened, which freed up the seriously congested A13 that had an avalanche effect on roads far away, etc.
