Travelers this Memorial Day weekend could spend more than $3 per gallon to fill up, the highest gas prices this time of year since 2014 amid fallout from the Colonial Pipeline hack earlier this month.

The higher gas prices come as more than 37 million people are expected to hit the roads, most of them by car, as more states lift coronavirus restrictions for fully vaccinated people. That is an increase of 60% from last year’s Memorial Day weekend travel, which was at the height of the pandemic lockdowns, according to AAA.
