Nine Steps For
Clean Driving
|
- Is your vehicle
in-tune? A poorly tuned engine can consume an average
of 10 percent more fuel.
- One equals 20.
One poorly tuned vehicle can emit pollutants equivalent
to 20 properly tuned cars
- Don't let your
engine idle. Excessive idling pollutes. Turn
off the engine whenever you can.
- Low tires put pressure on fuel. Properly inflated tires improve fuel performance.
- 90 is optimum.
The best fuel economy for most vehicles is under 90 km/h.
- Light is right.
The heavier the car, the more fuel it burns. Avoid
unnecessary weight.
- Plan your trips.
Save money by planning activities combining errands to reduce
the number of times you start your vehicle.
- Share the ride.
Carpooling or ride sharing reduces the number of vehicles
on the road.
- Be aerodynamic.
Reducing wind resistance on the highway cuts fuel consumption.
Try rolling up the windows and opening the vents.
