Save Some Cash! 10 Tips to help Minimise Your Fuel Consumption

Are you one of those looking to cut your budget on fuel purchase? Well, here are 10 simple tips on saving money on petrol and  will help you free up your cash for other things. These tips work if your car runs on diesel too, according to Telegraph UK:

Don’t drive in the rush hour

Getting stuck in a traffic jam is not only energy-zapping, it is also cash-zapping. It is a very expensive way of travelling. Every time you stop and start in traffic, your car needs first gear and a huge amount of fuel to get moving again. Second gear is not much better. The best solution is to not travel during the rush hour. You can also save some fuel by trying to understand what the traffic is doing in front of you, and travelling steadily at a slow speed, rather than accelerating and braking. In a busy city like Lagos, there are now some mobile traffic information apps and radio stations which update you of traffic in almost every area in the city. You could also call a friend who plies the same route like you if they have some information about traffic on the route.
