Default Reduce Fuel and Running Costs

Driving to an advanced system is proven to reduce fuel and running costs, as well as making drivers safer on the roads.

Many drivers fail to anticipate what is happening ahead and tend to use the accelerator and brake as 'On and Off' switches. By planning well ahead and reading the road (bends) fuel can be saved by using 'Acceleration Sense'. This is the ability to control the speed of the vehicle by accurate use of the accelerator when braking is not required.

This also reduces the wear and tear on your brakes. Overall you can improve your M.P.G. and reduce wear and tear on your vehicle. I have been able to reduce the number of gear changes made by some drivers by 50% and reduce their fuel consumption by 10% in a 30 minute drive.

Think how much you could save in 12 months by driving to an advanced system. If you want to learn more check out Uptwospeed Advanced Driver Training.

Would be much more usefull for people to dump there 4 x 4's and gas guzzlers.

You can run a 1.4 litre diesel flat out all day and still gey 50 MPG.
