LOS ANGELES—The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles and Orange counties both rose to record highs Feb. 4 because of the switch to summer-blend gasoline and higher oil prices.
The Los Angeles County average price rose to $4.72, breaking the previous record of $4.71 set Nov. 27. The Orange County average price rose to $4.70, breaking the previous record of $4.69 set Wednesday, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service.
