Labor Day weekend gas prices hit record high

Gasoline prices have reached an unprecedented record high for Labor Day weekend, with California residents experiencing significant sticker shock as costs frequently exceed $6 per gallon. Simultaneously, the average price of diesel in the U.S. hit an all-time high this Friday. This surge in diesel costs is attributed to the ongoing conflict with Iran, which has placed increased strain on the global energy supply, impacting fuel markets across the United States during this period.
