Gas prices this Thanksgiving 2016 has reached an all-time low since 2008. Gasoline fares of Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Virginia, Texas, Minnesota, Kansas and Oklahoma average to $2 per gallon. Hawaii, California, Alaska, and Nevada are among the states who offer less cheap gas fares which average to $2.65-2.80 per gallon, according to Dothan Eagle.

"We see an increase of 160,000 travelers compared to last year," said Doug Shupe, AAA Spokesman, in a press release, according to Infloria. "This represents a 4.3 percent increase over 2015 and the most travelers since 2007."

Cheap gas this Thanksgiving  is the result of high quantity and abundance of oil being produced for the global market. Winter-blend gasoline formulas also contribute to this as it is less expensive, according to Waco Trib.

"The bulk of America's refining capacity is the southeastern United States, and abundant supplies should keep prices relatively low heading into the holiday season, barring any unexpected disruptions in pipeline shipment or refinery schedules," AAA stated.

Travelers on road are advised to be safe and practice caution because of accidents like car collisions or animal crashes. Motorists are advised to wear their helmets. Drivers and their passengers are advised to buckle up their seatbelts to avoid severe injuries.

"Drivers who are not buckled up and motorcyclists who are not wearing safety helmets are most vulnerable in these crashes," Shupe said. "Many of the crashes are unavoidable, but understanding the dangers and being prepared for them, especially in November and December, could save lives."

Police officers all over the country will be extra watchful on the road this busy week of Thanksgiving to look for drivers who are speeding, drunk while driving, and distracted, i.e., texting while driving.
