But even before retail gas prices broke all-time highs, drivers across the country were ready to veer into all sorts of fuel and money-saving tactics.<\/p>\n<p> Nearly two-thirds of drivers (59%) said they would change their driving habits if gas prices passed the $4 mark and three-quarters said they would do it if gas touched $5, according to a AAA survey released Thursday. Those habits include less driving, combined <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>s and more carpooling.<\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n       Eight in ten people considering changes said they would drive less. Survey participants under age 35 were more also likely to consider carpooling. People above that age were also more likely to say they\u2019d combine errands in trips and cut back on trips to dine and shop.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers conducted the 1,051-person survey from Feb. 18 to Feb. 22, when gas prices looked like a relative deal compared to now. As MarketWatch reported Thursday, Americans are already taking im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>te steps to reduce their mileage, given the spike in gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>On Feb. 24, the day Russian President Vladimir Putin announced military operations in Ukraine, a gallon of gas was <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/gasprices.aaa.com\/as-oil-prices-surge-drivers-should-brace-for-more-pump-price-increases\/\" class=\"icon none\">$3.54, <\/a>according to AAA\u2019s national average.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday \u2014 with Putin\u2019s military operations now an increasingly violent invasion offering few signs of an immediate halt \u2014 AAA said the national average was $4.31. <\/p>\n<p>That broke the record set one day before at $4.25.

Compared to a year ago, costs are up 7.9%, the Consumer Price Index data showed.<\/p>\n<p>Gasoline prices popped 6.6% month-over-month and 38% year-over-year, according to the data.<\/p>\n<div id=\"cx-membership-tile\"><\/div>\n<p>The latest Consumer Price Index numbers don\u2019t even fully capture the price impact from the Russia-Ukraine turmoil; in America, upcoming inflation rates of 8% and 9% are possible, some economists say.<\/p>\n<p>The AAA survey suggests it could be a pricey summer, when gas prices traditionally increase even without global conflicts upsetting the world\u2019s crude-oil markets. Half of the poll participants said they had summer plans, and 42% said they wouldn\u2019t change them, no matter the price of gas.<\/p>\n<p>Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine is causing some people to re-think their European getaways this spring, according to Hopper, the travel booking <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>.
