How to conserve Fuel On the Road

• Practise car‑pooling and use public transport.
• Plan your trips and avoid stop-and‑go traffic.
• Have good braking habits as stopand‑go driving wastes fuel.
• Use clutch only when changing gears to prevent loss of energy and clutch lining damage
• Maintain a steady cruising speed
• Do not overfill your petrol tanks as fuel will be wasted through evaporation and spillage.
• Check and service your car regularly.
• Clean air filter regularly to avoid rapid wear of engine components and higher fuel consumption.
• Use correct gears as incorrect shifting can lead to as much as 20% increase in fuel use.
• Check your tyres ‑ under‑inflated tyres increase rolling resistance and fuel use.
