Ship traffic through the strait has largely stalled due to the Iran war, now in its 12th week, driving up global oil prices.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8220;Americans are going to pay billions more to get where they&#8217;re going this summer, and even after the strait reopens, it could take a year or more for prices to fully recover,&#8221; De Haan said.<\/p>\n<p>The Middle East conflict is only one factor driving up pump prices. Fuel costs typically rise during the summer because U.S. environmental regulations require gas stations to switch to a more expensive blend. The higher-grade fuel, designed to guard against evaporation as temperatures rise, can add up to 15 cents per gallon to the cost of a filling up, according to GasBuddy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As more Americans hit the road during the summer, stronger demand for gas can also push prices up by 5 to 15 cents a gallon, according to GasBuddy.<\/p>\n<p>More than half of Americans say gas prices represent a financial hardship, while 77% say their income is not keeping up with <span class=\"link\"><a
