Eco-driving policies

Eco-driving policies aim to reduce fuel consumption and emissions by promoting efficient driving behaviors. These policies encourage drivers to accelerate smoothly, maintain steady speeds, anticipate traffic flow, and reduce unnecessary idling or braking. Techniques include using higher gears when appropriate, avoiding rapid accelerations, and keeping tires properly inflated. Implementing eco-driving not only saves money on fuel but also lessens environmental impact. Organizations may provide training, incentives, or technological tools to support these practices, fostering sustainable transportation habits across fleets and individual drivers.
