Not all these tips are good ones. For example, if you aren't in a hybrid, turning off your car at a stoplight is a terrible idea, as starting your car uses quite a lot of fuel.

Similarly, turning your car off while going downhill is stupid. Any modern car cuts the fuel supply when you take your foot of the accelerator. Turning the car off means you have to turn it back on, burning excess gas in the process.

Good point about stoplights. But the article doesn't mention turning the car off downhill. LuvWikis 19:58, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
