Some great tips also for fuel conservation. I tend to agree with the sentiment alluded to that some of the smaller, "greener" cars suffer from their size and perceived safety. I'd love to get a Smart car (apart from the efficiency I think they actually look smart), however on the rat race that is my daily commute, I feel that I'd come out a lot worse of than the ubiquitous 4x4s and "tanks" - mostly driven by mothers on the school run, I'd note.
