We've all heard the horns beeping, pounding on the steering wheel and the horrible road rage that has been happening more and more in New Jersey. They have no patience for slowing down or even a second after the light turns green. Please try a little bit of patience. How about the zooming and weaving motorcyclists on New Jersey Roadways? I get so nervous.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
