Asking how well you use the accelerator may seem a strange thing to question but in my opinion most drivers use approximately 50% more accelerator than necessary on most drives.  How much, or how little do you actually need?  Try on the next drive to use just 10% less and see how much difference it makes.  With fuel prices on the way up, this has to help the wallet.

Timing a junction in order to reach it just at the point you can go without stopping all together is skill, but to do this without any more brake than is necessary requires practice.  However surely this is the most efficient way to drive?

Thinking of the benefits makes this a ‘no-brainer’ really, you will use less fuel, spend more time moving, rather than waiting to go.  There is likely to be less wear and tear on the car, and it is in my opinion much safer.

Of course speeding is such a thorny subject for most, but what exactly are are you gaining from going a few miles an hour faster?  In fact most of the time it makes very little difference to overall journey times, but it does mean you can pull up in a shorter distance if you drive at a slower speed.

Just try using just a little less accelerator on the next drive, and see if it makes much difference, I’m pretty sure you will see plenty of benefits, over very few disadvantages, try the challenge!
