Budget 2023: Chancellor announces fuel duty will be frozen<\/h3>\n

A London-based driving instructor has revealed how petrol and diesel owners can save fuel with a simple tip.<\/p>\n

Driving School Beckenham showed off the simple solution on their ‘world_driving’ TikTok account.<\/p>\n

The expert stressed travelling in stop and start traffic, a regular feature of major cities, can give road users the \u201cworst fuel economy\u201d.<\/p>\n

To save the pennies, drivers should not race up to the car behind and brake sharply but instead take their time.<\/p>\n

Road users should \u201cbrake gently\u201d and cruise up to the car behind which will not take as much out of a vehicle.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cDriving in stop-and-go traffic typically gives you the worst fuel economy, It is also more wearing on certain car components.<\/p>\n

“To save fuel try not to speed up and brake harshly, Instead accelerate lightly and brake gently in plenty of time. This not only saves fuel but is also a less stressful way of driving.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AA has admitted driving smoothly would ensure motorists used less petrol and diesel for each tip.<\/p>\n

Specialists have also urged drivers to read the road ahead and anticipate their next move which may avoid unnecessary braking.<\/p>\n

The group states road users should also decelerate smoothly by releasing the accelerator in plenty of time while leaving the car in gear.<\/p>\n

The RAC has also previously claimed travelling too quickly was one of the main reasons why drivers lose fuel efficiency.<\/p>\n

The breakdown group urges motorists to stay in a higher gear at all times which will reduce the amount of acceleration.<\/p>\n

They added: \u201cExcessive speed is the biggest fuel-guzzling factor so having a light right foot and ensuring all acceleration is gentle is very important to fuel-efficient driving.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, you will always have to accelerate a number of times on a journey, but that doesn’t mean you have to pull away like you’re on the starting line at Silverstone.<\/p>\n

\u201cProbably the biggest secret to achieving high mpg is driving in the highest possible gear for your vehicle while keeping within the speed limit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe best advice in urban areas is to change up through the gears as quickly as you can with the lowest revs possible, probably at around 2000rpm. Remember: the faster an engine spins, the more fuel it uses.\u201d<\/p>\n
