Eco Friendly Driving

Driving test to measure eco-friendly motoring

in adition to logging their faults in parking, mirror use and clutch control, examiners will now also measure candidates' fuel efficiency.
The new test has been introduced by the Driving Standards Agency in order to comply with European Union legislation.

While no one will be failed for not being green enough, would-be drivers will be given a detailed environmental assessment of their performance and receive instructions on how they should improve. Among other orders, drivers will be told they must not move down through the gears when preparing to stop, and that they should memorise the mantra "gears are for going - brakes are for slowing".
