“In essence, for each 50 cent increase in the price at the pump, motorists will approximately spend $600 more per year,” AAA VP of Public Affairs Georjeane Blumling said. “These rapidly rising gas prices are especially tough on people already trying to do more with less. Fuel conservation is becoming critical for people trying to balance a family budget.”
