Eco-safe driving means adapting your motoring to stay ecological and free from harm – for the earth and yourself. It’s about choosing to own a fuel-efficient car, driving in the most economical way and looking out for any hazards that may affect your energy consumption.
 
So, how do you stay eco-safe? Lincoln driving school Driving Works will guide you through the best ways to lower your emissions and motoring costs. A few basic changes to your driving habits – such as planning journeys in advance, limiting your gear changes and allowing the car to do most of the work – can make a big difference to your fuel consumption. It will also change the way you think about your driving, with a keen emphasis on road safety awareness.
 
Driving Works believes eco-safe driving can save you between 10 and 20 per cent of your average annual fuel bill. This means an eco-safe driving course could quickly pay for itself.

Eco-safe driving

Green motorists learn eco-safe driving. Lincoln driving instructor Driving Works offers these tips to help you stay environmentally-friendly.

  • Choose a low-emissions car. The Driving Works Fiesta Zetec S produces low CO2 emissions of only 110 g/km.
  • Don’t wait for your car to warm up before driving off. Letting it reach operating temperature quickly is best for efficiency and longevity.
  • Check your tyre pressures regularly – under-inflated rubber creates more drag and increases fuel consumption.
  • Don’t drive around with excessive weight in your car.
  • Drive as smoothly as possible, planning ahead to avoid unnecessary braking or stop-start driving.
  • Try to drive more slowly, avoiding heavy acceleration. Aim to cruise at an optimum speed for your car’s fuel economy.
  • Remove any items that increase your car’s aerodynamic drag, including roof racks, mud flaps and oversized wheels.
  • Don’t rev your engine too hard – change gear early and block shift where possible.
  • Don’t accelerate when going downhill or approaching roundabouts, corners, junctions and traffic lights.
  • Turn off the car’s engine when you’ll be stationary for longer than a few minutes.
