The price of gasoline has been falling in recent weeks, according to AAA.
On Tuesday, the average nationwide price was $4.88 a gallon. This is down from a June 14 high of $5.01.
AAA spokesman Andrew Gross said in a news release that “oil costs about $3 for every $4.89 at a gas pump. Consumers should find more relief on refueling if oil prices fall further.”
