I know that George Voll (BITW) was definitely not doing his best ecodriving on the first day (City and Urban) tests. He was coming really hot (fast!) and even locked up his brakes on one stop. He did not seem to be downshifting or even coasting -- they wanted you to "linearly" slow down and he was most definitely not linear. He was sometimes coming in right behind other cars and so he had to stop for their stop, and then again for his own 5 second stop -- not good for his mileage...
