just like WHO said, gas prices arent going to make a lasting affect on peoples driving habits, i dont want to sound pessimistic but its a sad reality, most people dont think about how "gunning it" affects fuel usage, they just piss and moan when they have to fill up. the only people that are going to be concerned about the the link between poor driving habits and poor fuel mileage are those who are honestly concerned about a. the impact on the environment or b. the impact on the wallet. most other people will be blinded by road rage and not even think about fuel mileage or the fact that they probably didnt save any time (ie lazarus' example)
