Eco-Friendly Tips
on how to "green" your vehicle and driving habits!
We all know that automobiles are a major source of pollution. But, there are many things you can do to get your vehicle and your driving habits to be more environmentally friendly. So the next time you get behind the wheel, keep these tips in mind:
| • |
Improve Your Driving Habits
Driving technique has a lot to do with your fuel economy. Avoid sudden starts and stops and go the speed limit. Drive wisely and minimize unnecessary miles by doing errands in one trip, getting good directions and calling ahead. Also remove any unnecessary junk from your vehicle and trunk – all that extra weight only drags you down and adversely affects your fuel economy.
|
| • |
Stay on Top of Your Vehicle Maintenance
Keeping up on your vehicle's maintenance, such as regular oil changes, air filter changes, spark plug replacements and ensuring your tires are properly inflated can increase your MPG up to 25%! You will burn less gas, pollute less and help prevent any car trouble down the line.
For example, if every vehicle on the road in the U.S. had its tires properly inflated we could save around 2 billion gallons of gas each year!

Carpooling is the Smart Way to Go
Find coworkers, neighbors and fellow students headed in the same direction. Start with one shared trip per week. Not only is it eco-friendly, but with today's skyhigh gas prices, carpooling is also friendly on your budget. Also look into ride share programs – go to the King County Metro Ride Share website for information.
