Although you may not be able to control the cost of gas as you get around each day in your vehicle, you can improve your car's fuel economy by driving slower and avoiding accelerating too quickly. Avoid driving aggressively, and give yourself enough time to reach your destination. Obeying speed limits is critical, even if it takes you an extra minute or two to reach your destination. It's also necessary to plan your route in advance and avoid highways or roads where traffic is present, which is when you'll waste the most gas as you frequently stop and go. Skipping premium gas is also necessary if your vehicle doesn't require it.
Keeping your tires properly inflated will also reduce the amount of gas that you use each day, making it necessary to check the tires every week to ensure you can add extra air if necessary.
