Everyone benefits as greener driving means less accidents and less stress!

 Take on these helpful tips to help reduce harmful emissions:

-          Slow down!! Drive at 50mph rather than 70mph and you can improve your fuel economy by approximately 25% and save money.

-          Don’t be idle!! Turn off your engine if you are stationary for a while. Sitting in traffic only burns fuel. It will reduce your emissions, and increase the performance of your catalytic converter.

-          Be smooth!! Harsh acceleration and braking can use up to 30% more fuel causing increased wear and tear on your car.

-          Go easy on the air con!! It increases your emissions and decreases your fuel economy by as much as one and a half kilometers for every two litres.

-          Drive with your windows up when driving fast!! It reduces drag and makes your fuel consumption more efficient.

-          Look after your car!! A well maintained car can use less fuel than one that is badly maintained. Every 6 psi a tyre is underinflated can increase fuel consumption by 1%.
