(New York, NY)) — Drivers are getting a bit of a break at the gas pump as they set out on their holiday road trips. Triple A reports that the nationwide average price for a gallon of regular grade fuel is three-dollars-five cents. That’s up by two cents from a week ago, but still near the low for the year.
While the national average price never dipped below three dollars in 2024, Triple A says prices are lower in many parts of the country. An estimated 119 million people are expected to travel during the holiday season, 107 million of them by car.
