"According to the American Automobile Association (AAA), the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline passed the $4 threshold this week, a price not seen since August 2022."
"Trump's war with Iran has led to nearly complete disruption of oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, upending global oil supply chains and leading to a spike in oil prices of more than 50% over the past month."
"Driving slower really does use less fuel, according to the American Automobile Association. Aerodynamic drag causes fuel economy to drop off significantly as speeds increase above 50 mph."
Gas prices have surpassed $4 per gallon, a significant increase attributed to the ongoing conflict in Iran disrupting oil shipments. This has caused crude oil prices to rise over 50% in a month. To mitigate fuel costs, drivers can adopt strategies such as driving slower, which reduces aerodynamic drag and improves fuel efficiency. The American Automobile Association emphasizes the importance of adhering to speed limits to conserve gas and save money during this costly travel season.
