Driving safe leads to fuel savings

Responsible driving should not only lead you to your destination safely but should also save you a significant chunk of your fuel budget. Here are a few fuel-saving techniques that you might want to start practicing from this day forward.

1. Do not rev your engine once started. Wait until the engine has warmed up.

2. Avoid jack-rabbit starts, take-off, and sudden stops. Gradual acceleration saves fuel and minimizes wear and tear.

3. Keep proper air pressure in tires. Incorrect tire pressure reduces gasoline mileage, wears out tires faster and makes vehicle handling difficult.

4. Shift to high gear as soon as you can and stay there as long as you can. Low-gear speed consumes much more fuel than high-gear speed.
