    Learn to "boost and cruise" especially if the road & traffic condition permits it. It means to moderately accelerate to a certain speed then coast the car as long as you can.

    Smooth driving. Do not suddenly apply the accelerator and brake because that will burn more fuel.

    Always have your tires properly inflated.

    Energy saving motor oil (lighter grade motor oil) actually helps get more fuel mileage by reducing internal engine load.

    Which would be more economical - speed up a little to catch a green light, or travel at your normal rate and have to idle at a red light?

    IMO it pays to know your environment on this one. Meaning, knowing the timing of changes in stop lights in the road you frequently use. For me, speed up a little to the green light in major intersections since the stop light is on for a longer time. In some intersection just drive casually.
    Fasten your seatbelt! Or else... Driven To Thrill!

    I once read that you should drive as if may itlog kang inaapakan sa ilalim ng accelerator haha. In other words, be light when stepping at the gas pedal. Earlier shifting helps, so long as it doesnt hurt the engine of course.
