TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Motorists continue to see lower prices at the pumps in New Jersey.
AAA Mid-Atlantic says the average price of a gallon of regular gas in the state on Friday was $2.54, down 3 cents from last week. That's also much lower than the price from a year ago, when motorists were paying $3.47.
This marks the fifth straight week that pump prices have fallen in New Jersey.
