I love the stoplight in the town where my daughter's school is. It will turn in seconds when you approach it from either way. I wish they were all like that! :)Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17486895127003368291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-47137187450387041892012-09-10T11:12:24.351-04:002012-09-10T11:12:24.351-04:00Hi Belinda,

Immediately saw better fuel economy.<br /><br />Here's something from the UPS guys -- plan your errand route to only make right-hand turns, so that you spend less time at left turn light's idling. According to UPS, this saves them a ton of money on gas. On a small scale, I've been stuck at a light idling for a while before, and just watched my "miles remaining" number tick downward rapidly. Very discouraging. <br /><br />So I do most of my shopping to and from my daughters' school. On the way south I stop in at places on the west side of the street, and on the way north I hit the stores on the east side. I rarely deviate from this. It's just easier too.<br /><br />Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.com
