Plan your journey

Plan your journey

Unnecessary driving is bound to use more fuel, so cutting down on this as much as possible is a great way to conserve your fuel a little better. One way to avoid driving more than you need to is by planning your journey in advance.

Before setting off, check your route to see if the traffic is moving well and if there is any congestion. Sitting in queues of slow-moving traffic is always going to waste more fuel than if it is flowing nicely, so avoid travelling during rush hour and always check what the traffic is like before heading off.

Plus, if you’re travelling somewhere unfamiliar, always take a look at the route beforehand so you can minimise your chances of getting lost and adding more unnecessary miles to the journey.
