5) Drive to Conserve Gas
Conserving gas isn’t just a matter of limiting how much you drive, it’s also a matter of how you drive. Actions such as rapid acceleration and hard braking waste gas unnecessarily. Driving less aggressively overall helps to conserve gas and is also generally safer. Speed is also a concern in terms of getting good gas mileage. When you speed over 50 miles per hour, your mileage decreases. While you should not refuse to drive faster if safety necessitates it, setting cruise control for around 50 mph on highway driving will let you save gas, and subsequently a fair bit of money.
