Following the recent “fall back” time change, the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) is issuing an urgent plea to motorists and pedestrians alike: exercise extreme caution to combat a significant rise in crashes and fatalities as daylight hours dwindle. The shift means less sunlight during critical morning and evening commute times, creating dangerous conditions that demand increased vigilance.
Georgians started the new month by seeing continued relief at the pump, as the average price for regular unleaded gasoline dropped further over the weekend of November 1–2. This continued downward trajectory is primarily attributed to robust global oil production, which has kept supply ahead of demand and pushed crude prices lower.
