Smith System has just released a video designed to help drivers improve fuel efficiency. The video is $99 and is aimed towards “professional drivers”; either people who drive extended periods of time or companies that employ drivers.

“The video, entitled “Right Foot Fuel Economy,” features innovative use of helicopter-based photography to show that pacing yourself in city driving can maintain momentum and save fuel. It follows a driver through several runs on a 13.6 mile city street circuit and documents a 29% improvement in fuel economy. The key point made in the video is that a driver’s behavior affects fuel economy.” (Source: PR Newswire)

This is an interesting concept; I wonder how much gas the helicopter used while making the video. Although this is a nice tool, the $99 price tag will likely limit its use to companies. If you want to do it yourself without spendng $99, read Five Ways to Drive More Efficiently.
