Usually demand declines in the fall and winter
Why?


There is considerably less driving in the Fall and Winter than the Summer when vacations and outdoor activities are much more common. Also, when school is back in session, kids and teenagers are confined from the morning to the afternoon.

The weather is a big factor too. We are less inclined to leave the house, other than for work, when it gets cold.



Thanksgiving week is the busiest driving week of the year though.
It is followed by Memorial Day weekend, Mother's Day weekend, and Christmas week.
