Default gas leak

I suddenly have a gasoline leak at the back right side of my car. It only leaks when car is running. Does not appear to be around the tank. Is this something I can fix or do I need to take it to the mechanic? Is it safe to drive five miles or so?

Default RE: gas leak

alot of the time it is the rubber hoses going to and from the fuel filter and fuel pump. thats prob what the issue is. youll need to get under there and remove the plastic cover to see the fuel pump and filter.
