Car idling is a nasty habit...
How many of you let your car idle while waiting for your morning cup 'o joe from the drive-thru window, waiting for your kids to get in the car after school, or waiting for the construction peeps to let you pass? Apparently, most of us will spend on average a total of fifteen minutes per day letting our cars idle and waste gas (not to mention our money) instead of shutting the car off. I've been known to let my car warm-up a bit for a few minutes on a winter morning before driving it -- but no more! By parking and walking into the places we normally drive-thru, turning your car off when waiting for someone or walking to pick up the kids we could each save $100 a year in fuel costs (over 2 billion gallons of fuel as a nation) and save the earth from further pollution. Amazingly, an idling car creates twice the emissions of a running auto.
