California drivers face $1,000 more in gas costs due to regulations.

In 2025, drivers in California will need to make an extra $1,000 a year just to keep up with rising gas prices. This dramatic increase is linked to new regulations from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) mandating the use of a cleaner, more expensive fuel blend at gas stations.
