Recently, there has been a fluctuation in prices of fuel that could be linked to the cost of crude oil. This is because crude oil is the source of refined petroleum products, and its cost mainly is determined by international supply as well as demand rise and fall. For this reason, it is believed crude oil cost is the most important factor which affects the price of fuel throughout the year. Also, the cost of the refinery that fluctuate all-year-round, represent another expense that impacts gasoline prices as it is blended differently during the summer to diminish the volume of smog-creating pollutants which go in the atmosphere through fuel. 

Following Lane (2010), in the United States, the higher fuel prices are due to increased public transit and the number of passengers using a specific form of public transport. It has been found out that the extensive fluctuations of fuel price, increase together with increasing rail and bus transit ridership which call for possible long-lasting modifications in United States travel conduct. The movement of people to different areas and workplaces in certain months of the year causes the public transport system to demand more fuel that also increases the refining costs and production. 

Finally, as gasoline costs have ascended to phenomenal levels during the course of recent periods, several transit agencies have asserted that increased fuel costs have resulted to the growth of ridership (Haire & Machemehl, 2007). In conclusion, the fuel prices increase with increase in ridership to manage the demand.
