Can I deduct can you write off gas on taxes?

Gas expenses are deductible when they are incurred for business purposes. For example, if you use your car to travel to meet clients, deliver goods, or attend business meetings, you can deduct the cost of gas as a business expense. However, commuting from home to your regular place of business is considered personal use and is not deductible. To claim this deduction, you can either use the actual expense method, which includes gas, or the standard mileage rate, which encompasses gas and other vehicle-related expenses. The IRS requires that you keep detailed records of your business mileage and the purpose of each trip. For instance, if you drove 10,000 miles in a year and 6,000 of those were for business, you could deduct 60% of your gas expenses if using the actual expense method.
