Step 2: Drive better: This is where the big savings are from, think of the accelerator as a ‘money pump’ so gentle acceleration (not lower speed), can cut cost by 30%  Why not book a refresher session to find out more about saving fuel with a few changes to driving style Use the contact form to find out more.  All our learners find out how best to do this and will learn to drive efficiently.
