Interpretation of driving style tips : application of the major driving style tips of "New Style Driving" by passenger car drivers and the effects on fuel consumption and tail pipe emissions
report
Besides the applied engine and vehicle technology, the fuel economy of a car is also influenced by the behaviour of its driver. In the order to address the influence of a driver on the fuel consumption of road vehicles, the Dutch government and Novem have developed a national programme called "The New Driving Force" (Het Nieuwe Rijden). The main factor influencing fuel consumption is driving style, which can be influenced in different ways. The New Driving Force programme aims at encouraging an economical driving style amongst others by means of handing driving style tips to the Dutch public.
