reduced-form regressions show that while the VKTs driven by gasoline cars decrease when the price of gasoline rises, their … fuel economy tends to get worse. It is unclear why this happens. Perhaps attempts to save on gasoline-cutting on solo … that seek to address environmental externalities, such as a carbon tax. …
