Saving Gas is Catching On

Oct. 18, 2011, 12:24 p.m.

On my way to a Television interview for the book today. I saw a very slow car in the right hand lane on the highway. I always drive in the right lane and stay below 100 to save gas, but this person was doing 90 km/h. It seemed really slow! I caught up to them, and saw a handmade sign on the back of their car that said "Sorry! Driving slower to save gas". What a great idea! I passed them and gave them the thumbs up. Glad to see that this fuel-saving movement is really catching on
