first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.

in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.

fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
