Many people who are traveling for the Fourth of July are already well on their way, or will be soon.SUBSCRIBE TO FOX 32 CHICAGO ON YOUTUBE
This holiday weekend, AAA is actually predicting a new record to be set for road travel, with 42 million people nationwide expected to travel by car. In Illinois, AAA estimates that close to 2.5 million people will drive 50 miles or more, and despite high gas prices, experts say most travelers aren’t shying away from sticking to their weekend plans.
"It’s possible that the numbers would be even higher if gas prices weren’t where they are right now, but looking back at our historical data, there really isn’t much of a correlation between gas prices and the number of folks traveling. Especially when it comes to these big holiday weekend and summer vacations.
