Oil Prices Soar: Truckers, Drivers Hit Hardest

Global energy markets are under strain as tensions between Iran, Israel, and the U.S. drive oil prices up. Gas prices have surged by 5% nationwide, with diesel potentially rising even faster. Truck stops and rideshare drivers are hit hardest, facing triple-digit fuel costs. Experts cite risks in the Strait of Hormuz and seasonal shifts as key factors. Prices may stabilize if shipping routes are secured, but expect national gas averages to reach $3.75 to $3.95, with diesel nearing $5.00.
