Racing away and up to roundabouts and junctions and overtaking wastes a lot of fuel. Also, if motorists with two or more cars leave their smaller car at the end of their driveway on a weekend, they are more likely to use this for short trips, rather than a gas guzzler. What can the Government do to help motorists reduce their carbon emissions and fuel bills, without further increasing the tax burden? Provide more traffic information along major roads so motorists know what is ahead and can take steps to avoid hold ups. The Government is also proposing to introduce 20mph zones in residential areas. We are asking them to look carefully at the effect this will have on fuel efficiency. If a 30mph zone is downgraded to a 20mph zone, the CO2 output could increase on more free-flowing roads. How successful are car-share schemes and is there anything you feel could be done to improve such initiatives? There are more of them now, but there remains a practical difficulty.
