Hi,
Every traffic study I have seen shows that slow(er) and steady beats accelerate and stop every time; it's better for the number of cars that moves on the road, and we all know it helps in the FE, too.
Each time a vehicle stops, it causes the vehicles behind them (who are not ecodriving!) to also stop and the effect ripples backwards up the road from the point where the original stop occurred. Someone who is ecodriving comes along and helps smooooth it all out again...
