When behind the wheel of your vehicle, always try to observe Green Driving habits to keep your fuel economy & emissions levels at their very best.

  • Reduce drag by keeping your windows rolled up & your air conditioner on.

  • Avoid sudden accelerations and decelerate gradually when safely possible.

  • Shut off the engine & try not to idle for more than 2 minutes at a time.

  • Driving at speeds over 70 MPH increases emissions – slow down & go green.

  • Plan your routes to avoid redundant trips for errands and appointments.

  • When driving on an uncrowded highway - use your cruise control.
