22. change any items that making ur car use more gas than it should be using, like oxygen sensor, pcv valve,struts, exhaust...
23. 30 sec warm up in ok weather, 5 min or more in winter. but new cars no need to warm up, so save the gas to warm it up
24. drive ur car about 1 hour and half, then let the car have a rest. Heat is the # one killer for car engine
25. Change gear to neutral when waiting for red light to turn green, change gear back to drive when "other side turn red from amber", this is for when to change gear back, save u about 10% of ur gas NOTE: use the brake enough to stop car from moving, no need to press brake all the way. and if car dont move at all, dont need brake while waiting.
26. use better gas in winter, it last longer, give off more heat, better performace in winter, and help use less heater.

36. having u wonder y u cant driving on the lane for bus, taxi, for 3, sometime 2 more people. there r times u cant drive on that lane, but there r times u can, so look at the sign, see from what time to what time u can drive on, this also help skip some traffic.
37. DON'T "drinking and driving", "take drugs and drive", "sleepy and drive"
38. Dont invest lots of $$ in Oil/Gas stock, u just drive up ur gas price
39. have u notice some cars have OverDrive, that for save gas on high way speed, when u driving in the 60km zone at 60km, u can turn it off
