A FIVE PER CENT cut in fuel consumption would solve the present shortage, said the Transport Minister last week.
Fuel supplies are the same as last year — in spite of reduced Iranian output — but demand has increased by 5 per cent.
To see how much fuel could be saved by running at lower speeds, CM has done a series of trial runs with a fully laden 32-tonner.
We found that a saving of 3.66 mpg (33 per cent) — can be achieved by running at 40 mph rather than 60 mph. N importantly, journey ti need not necessarily be portionately longer.
Many vehicles currei used in Britain cannot hold motorway maximum ol mph but can keep up a ste 50mph.
Our tests showed that ti are other advantages. Lo speeds result in less veh wear and tear and for m drivers a more comfortz. environment with less nois Our test reports appear page 104.
