School's almost out for summer and many families will soon be packing the car up and hitting the road for the Summer of 2019.

The a new list out form the website WalletHub which highlights the best and worst states for summer road trips.

Some of the criteria used in determining this list includes gas and toll prices, quality of roads and bridges, number of attractions and nightlife possibilities.

The Garden State came in at #31 on the list of states which seems a bit low to me. The are so many attractions like the Cape May Zoo and nightlife options including the casinos in Atlantic City. Plus, throw in our beautiful beaches and scenic mountain views and I would think our state would be a great choice for a road trip!

The Top 5 best states for road trips in order are North Carolina, Wyoming, Minnesota, Virginia and Texas.

Safe travels on your summer road trips!
