DEARBORN, Mich. (WXYZ) — Gas prices in Michigan are up 84 cents from last week in the state of Michigan, according to the American Automobile Association (AAA).
Michigan drivers are now paying an average of $4.86/gallon for regular unleaded fuel, which is 99 cents more than this last month and $1.64 more than this time last year.
This means that for a full 15-gallon tank of gas, drivers are paying an average of $73, up $22 from last year's highest prices.
"Michigan drivers are feeling the squeeze as gas prices spike 85 cents in one week," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. "Until oil prices ease and gasoline stocks rebuild, drivers may continue to feel pressure from higher prices at the pump."
