“Falling pump prices may eventually lead to more drivers hitting the road again,” AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross said in a statement. “But that hasn’t happened yet. Instead, many drivers are waiting for prices to fall further before reverting to their typical driving habits.”

In Keya Paha County, the average price is $4.29, whereas the average in neighboring Holt County is $3.73. In Rock County, the average is $3.69.

Drivers in northeastern Nebraska are seeing prices below those amounts.
