Why braking affects fuel economy for beginners along with tips

[ShinyMew]

The most infuriating thing for me is when people of low intelligence overtake me and enter my lane on a multi-lane road when I am coasting to a red light, only for them to come to a complete stop at the lights, forcing me to stop despite the green because the lane is now occupied by their stationary car. The logical thing for them to do would have been to also slow down so as to enter the light on green with the residual momentum we both would otherwise have kept.

When people of high intelligence do that it is okay, I guess?

No doubt your early slowing down p-d them off.
If there were an euthanasia program they'd vote you in despite you are right about saving fuel.
Be careful what you wish for.

I had two vans blocking a double lane city road just ahead of the traffic lights because they wanted to chat to each other today.
The right lane ahead of them was mostly empty.
I managed to squeeze by and made the light turning orange

Idiot drivers are a fact of life and dealing with them in a responsible manner is part of the game.

CAUTION -- Intentional "Tongue-in-Cheek" remark:

Since I consider myself AVERAGE, that defines that HALF the idiots are above me but, likewise, HALF of them are also below me.

Hence, the "fun & gmes" exercise comes from deciphering which HALF people reside in as they drive around, past, over me.
