While “aggressive driving” is often linked with road rage, not everyone who drives aggressively is angry. Some people enjoy the thrill of putting the pedal to the metal, while others (including myself) are impatient by nature and just want to get where they’re going as quickly as possible. But regardless of the “why” behind it, the behaviors involved in aggressive driving—accelerating and braking quickly, constantly changing lanes to maneuver around other cars, etc.—are not only risky, but they also cost you money in terms of gas consumption. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, aggressive drivers use around 30% more gas on the highway and 5% more around town. If you’re looking to save money on gas, keeping your cool behind the wheel can help! (Your RPM gauge can be a useful visual cue—lower RPMs = lower fuel consumption.)
