Tick 'dem boxes, meet 'dem targets!

Test to steer learners on a greener route

This is, of course, all good eco-stuff and any sensible embracing
of such advice and practice is to be encouraged. However, I do have a few
points/questions bearing in mind drivers are '...examined on their
knowledge of “eco-driving” techniques for reducing fuel consumption
and harmful emissions...'

2 - I am unclear on the point here. The faster you go the more fuel
you use, obviously. Are we to drive on motorways at 50mph to save fuel?

4 - Interesting. And this improves eco-driving how?

5 - Supertrams or LRTs are [more] environmentally friendly [than ?]
because electric power has [a greater eco-efficiency?]

It does make one wonder what the rest of the facts/questions are.

This is when to put your foot down

So, who is correct?

If it is JC, then surely people face the prospect of failing by giving
the correct answer?

Where and when do we see this proof?

And if proven, what happens next?

An eco-shredding of all the literature?

ps: I'm pretty sure driving at 150mph will get you somewhere quicker,
but possibly not home.
