Vehicle idling is one of the biggest problems among today's drivers. What people often don't realize about idling is that it wastes money and natural resources, it can damage our vehicles, affect the environment, and harm our health. Did you know that a car burns gas more efficiently driven than parked? This is because cars are designed to be driven, not parked and running. Studies show that thirty seconds of idling can use more fuel than turning off the engine and restarting it. If you are stopped for more than 30 seconds- except in traffic- turn off your engine.
