Eco-Driving is a recognized and proven style of driving than can contribute to safer roads and a greener environment. It incorporates 3 key techniques; greater anticipation, use of gears and trailing throttle.
A recent survey has shown that drivers of company vehicles and private vehicles that are used for work (grey fleet), use considerably more fuel than vehicles used for private use. With Transport currently accounting for 20% of all air pollution emissions in the world, Eco-driving is not only about driving at lower speeds, but also about avoiding the wastage of fuel through needless braking or accelerating, thereby helping to reduce the damage to our planet and the air we breathe.
