Want lower expenditures for gasoline? Slow down! It is common knowledge that one reflection of evaporating social norms is the general disregard of speed limits. What is not so understandable, given general complaints of rising fuel costs, are fast accelerations just before very evident upcoming red lights as well as departures from the same.
It is curious how the penchant for “freedom,” finding its way behind the wheel, is eating drivers’ pocketbooks and really affecting the prices we all pay, because gas costs reflect total fuel usage as well as availability.
