Gas Costs Squash or Shorten Trips for Two-Thirds of U.S. Adults Planning Summer Road Travel
As Memorial Day and the summer travel season approach, most Americans see their gas tanks as half empty.
Two in three U.S. adults (66%) who plan to take a road trip this summer say rising gas costs have changed their travel plans. About three in five (57%) now plan to take a trip for a shorter amount of time and/or distance. One in ten (10%) have cancelled or will cancel trips altogether.
These are some of the results of Rand McNally's annual Great American Road Trip Survey. Harris Interactive conducted the survey of 2,030 U.S. adults from April 29 to May 1, 2008.
