More than 54 million Americans are expected to travel at least 50 miles for the Thanksgiving holiday. AAA says it will be the busiest Thanksgiving in terms of travel since 2005. Those who travel by motor vehicle will be paying an average of $2.61 per gallon for gas across the country. It’s not quite so bad in Missouri, where the average is currently $2.25 a gallon. That’s eight cents cheaper than it was last Thanksgiving. If you are traveling, keep an eye on your speed limit, other cars around you, and allow extra travel time to get to your destination safely. Law enforcement across the state will be cracking down on all violations, particularly speeding and aggressive driving, during the holiday weekend, which lasts through Sunday night.
