(July 31, 2020) After months of lockdown, everyone is itching to explore. As the weather warms up and states re-open, the American Automobile Association (AAA) predicts that 97% of summer travel in the United States will be done by car — totaling an estimated 683 million road trips from July to September.
“Most people want to get away while trying to stay safe and distant from others. When you drive, you can travel at your own comfort level,” said Jeanette Casselano, director of Public Relations at AAA. “You decide where you are going, what you are doing, and who you are with.”
