Parking ticket intervention

This one was a little bit naughty. Eco driving is a huge thing these days, but not enough is being done to promote it or actually get people to do it. We approached this issue by creating mock parking tickets with information inside about how a person can drive in a more environmentally friendly way, obviously no one got charged! Heres what they looked like.. enjoy.

I'm happy about the whole "driving environmentally friendly way". It's great. But I completely disagree with the notion that driving slower is safer. It's not. The driving manual has a section about driving slower than the traffic. Slow drivers actually become a hazard because other drivers tend to swerve around them.

My comment is based on driving in the US.

Hi melkristan,
Thanks for your feedback :) point totally taken about the "driving slower" thing, here in the uk we're not supposed to drive over 70mph on the motorways, however people generally do. Were not saying drive slower than 60 on a motor way as that would be dangerous, and since the optimum speed for fuel efficiency is between 60mph and 80mph, 70mph is probably the best speed to drive on motorways over here. Visit our site if you're interested in what we're trying to do. www.wegiveafuck.co.uk

thanks again!
Kind regards.
