Hypermiling

So there is a, shall I say, "driving craze" that has been hitting the main streets as of late. Yes yes, I know that it has been around for years, but it is becoming more and more popular with the increasing gas prices. HYPERMILING. Basically it's trying to increase your gas mileage.

This technique seemed like a good idea so I tried it on my way to Costco today. Yeah, good in theory...fatal in fact. I say this because it seems that it causes more traffic and issues on the road. Or if we are going to do hypermiling then EVERYONE must be required to do it OR there should be like specific hypermiling lanes and streets.
