No Pedal To The Metal

Aggressive driving costs you - at the gas pump.  Speeding, rapid acceleration, and last-minute braking can lower your gas mileage by 33% at highway speeds and by 5% around town, according to www.fueleconomy.gov.  Sensible driving is also safer for you and others, so you may save more than gas money.

Pablo:  This is very true.  I have found that the mileage I get on my Honda CR-V is much higher than the figures that were quoted on the window sticker when I bought it... and my better gas mileage is surely due to careful driving... with no racing around... wasting gas.
