21 April 2012 /24-7PressRelease / -registration of gas to safe driving

In the stranglehold of the first major tanker of the nation, available to the national maximum speed of the emergency Highway Energy Conservation Act 1974 Act was drafted. More than four decades later, many States have taken advantage of the deregulation of the standards of the Federal National Highway speed limit and abandoned the limit of 55 mph on most interstate highways; However, recent studies show that 55 may be once more the magic speed to save energy as the nation continues to face the challenges of supply and energy conservation.

According to the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy, Americans can lead green simply by following speed limits. The environment based in Washington and reports to purpose non-profit-based economy this driving 65 mph instead of 55 mph will reduce the fuel consumption by about 10%. This is consistent with the findings of the United States Department of energy for each 5 mph you drive over 60 mph, you pay an additional $ 0.24 per gallon of gasoline. Reset to 55 national speed limit could save an around 1 billion barrels of oil per year, which is more than annual imports from the Persian Gulf nation.

Speed has always been an issue affecting road safety. In 2009, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reported that speed is a factor in about a third of all road accidents fatal. Impacts of high speed challenge the protection measures available in standard motor vehicle models.

While some may argue that lower speed limits save lives, fuel and the environment, the death and injury of the road have been on a decline during the years of maximum speed limits increased. Manufacturers have developed fuel efficient and safe motor vehicles using green technologies. Last November, the Institute for data loss of road, a subsidiary of the IIHS, reported that hybrid cars are abolished more than conventional cars.

Our culture of consumption pilot fosters impatience. Share the road with people rushing for parties, family gatherings or shopping can become hectic. Drunk driving, distracted or even aggressive driving, often aggravated by speeding, will put passengers and drivers at risk. For people who have been injured in an automobile accident, it is important to discuss the situation with an experienced lawyer of bodily harm.
