ECO-DRIVING TIP OF THE WEEK:

Ride the “Green Wave” Traffic lights are often synchronized so that a motorist driving at a specific speed will pass through a series of green lights without stopping. Driving more quickly means you arrive sooner at a light and need to stop. Engineers optimize the traffic light timing to reduce congestion and improve traffic slowly. A steady speed often can help drivers avoid red lights, therefore keeping the car moving more efficiently. Smart Driving can improve your fuel efficiency by up to 33%.
