MIAMI (CBSMiami) — Have you filled up lately? Prices at the gas pumps are on the rise. According to AAA, Florida gas prices jumped 12 cents last week and drivers are now paying the most expensive prices since November 2014.
The price hike follows significant gains in the prices of crude oil and gasoline futures, as the recovery in global fuel demand outpaces supply.

Gasoline Conservation Tips
- Combine errands
- Share a ride with friends/family
- Remove excess weight in your vehicle. More weight means your engine must work harder.
- Drive conservatively. “Gunning it at the green light” or slamming the accelerator makes the engine work harder and wastes gasoline.
- Perform routine maintenance.
- Ensure tires are properly inflated. Under-inflated tires reduces your mileage and increases the wear on your tires.
