What can be achieved by the driving style known as ‘Eco-Driving’?
Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
Increased fuel efficiency.
Official explanation
One of the many advantages of an eco-driving style includes increased fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved driver safety. The eco-conscious driver becomes a more efficient driver because they learn to read the road further ahead and display better anticipation skills. This reduces the need for harsh acceleration and braking, which results in a more economical style of driving and a smoother journey.
