INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — If your Memorial Day weekend plans are taking you out of town, you’ll be paying a little less at the pump this year.
The national average for a gallon of gas is $2.85.
That’s about 10 cents lower than last Memorial Day.
There is some bad news — you may pay less for gas, but you may get stuck in more traffic. AAA estimates a record 37.6 million people will be traveling on the roads this weekend. That’s up 3-1/2% over last year.
