Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Driving / April 2008Slow down to save money, but not in the passing lane
With gas prices rising, gas-saving advice abounds: Drive more gently, slow down. It may be a great advice, but only thing is, please only slow down in a slower lane. Do not drive too slowly in a passing lane. Otherwise it becomes a self act, the potential conflict with those who do not necessarily believe this is a wise tip (and who is not speeding either) might cost you more than the savings.

We've gone thru this before, stupid. As long as you're doing exactly the speed limit you have the right and an ethical obligation to sit in the passing lane and thereby force the deadly and gas guzzling speeders to obey the law too.

Mike, your advice is spot on. Pay no mind to speedie. That numbnutz bats 1.000 in the department of being wrong. -- S&DDAM admits to putting others in danger with its beater: "Foot pumps are a joke.
