CHARLOTTE — North Carolina drivers can now report gas stations they believe are overcharging after the state suspended its gas tax.
Attorney General Jeff Jackson launched an online reporting form Tuesday, allowing drivers to flag stations they believe are not passing the tax savings on to customers.

Last week, the state suspended its 41-cent-per-gallon gas tax through the end of November.
Jackson also sent letters to gas retailers and distributors reminding them to pass the savings along to drivers.
Businesses that fail to comply could face fines of up to $5,000.
