TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) -- Thursday is National Dump the Pump Day, and StarMetro is celebrating by offering fare free rides.

It's good all Thursday, June 19 on StarMetro's fixed routes.

Dump the Pump Day started in 2006, when gas prices were $3 per gallon as a way to shine a light on cities' public transportation. According to the April APTA Transit Savings Report, a two-person household can save on average more than $10,000 annually by downsizing to one car.
