New laws took effect on Jan. 1

The new laws in Virginia become effective on July 1 while in North Carolina, they become law on Jan. 1. New Year’s Day meant changes for drivers in North Carolina.
If you buy gas anywhere in the state this year, you will pay more at the pump after the state motor fuels tax increased by 3.9 cents and a federal ethanol tax break worth 4.5 cents a gallon disappeared.
The state motor fuel tax is adjusted every six months and is representative of wholesale fuel prices.
