is efficient driving?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The <strong>driving style<\/strong> that we have in our vehicle will influence on the<strong> consumption of our car<\/strong>, since several habits and vices that we have with the car increase the fuel consumption and the deterioration of the vehicle&#8217;s parts. <!--more--> By <strong>reducing fuel consumption<\/strong>, we will also reduce the emission of gases into the ozone layer, so that <strong>efficient driving<\/strong> will help us to safeguard our environment, being more environmentally friendly and taking care of the already worrying current situation.<br \/>\nIn addition, <strong>efficient and preventive driving<\/strong> will help us to improve our safety and that of the other vehicles on the road.<br \/>\nIt is important that we drive according to what happens on the road, and to the characteristics of the agents that come together at the time of driving.<br \/>\nAt Marbesula Driving School, we have the <a href=\"https:\/\/marbesula.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>best driving school experts<\/strong><\/a> who can teach you <strong>efficient driving<\/strong> so that you can apply it from now on to the<strong> way you drive<\/strong>.<br \/>\nNow, let&#8217;s take a look at <strong>what<\/strong> <strong>efficient driving<\/strong> <strong>is<\/strong>, its benefits and how we can <strong>improve our driving techniques<\/strong>.      <\/p>\n<h2>Benefits of efficient driving<\/h2>\n<p>  By <strong>driving efficiently and preventively<\/strong>, we will obtain a series of important benefits in our health and economic well-being, as well as in the well-being of our vehicle and our environment.<br \/>\n<strong> Efficient driving<\/strong> is <strong>economic driving<\/strong>.<br \/>\nWe will reduce<strong> fuel<\/strong> and <strong>vehicle maintenance<\/strong><strong> costs<\/strong> and our pocket will notice it.<br \/>\nIn the long run it can be one of the most impacting benefits in our day to day life, since the money that you will be able to save will be noticed in your daily economy in a constant way.<br \/>\nYou will improve your<strong> driving techniques<\/strong>, which will give you greater dexterity at the wheel and, therefore, greater safety in your transfers.<br \/>\nThis is another important point, since the safer you feel and the better you drive, the more accidents you will be able to avoid, and this benefit will affect us all. <img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-338\"

sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/> As you get <strong>safer behind the wheel<\/strong>, you will also get more peace of mind, so you will reduce your stress level when you are driving your vehicle.<br \/>\nThis can greatly affect your well-being, since today we know that driving is one of the activities where we are most stressed and the calmer and safer we drive, the better quality of life we will gain.<br \/>\nAs we have mentioned before, <strong>efficient driving<\/strong> helps in our dealings with the environment.<br \/>\nYou will manage to<strong> reduce CO2 emissions<\/strong> and you will also reduce the <strong>level of noise pollution<\/strong>.<br \/>\nAll this will influence our environment and the difficult fight we have today with climate change.           <\/p>\n<h2>Safety and road safety<\/h2>\n<p>  One of the <strong>strong points of efficient and preventive driving<\/strong> is <strong>road safety<\/strong>.<br \/>\nBy <strong>mastering the driving techniques<\/strong> offered by <strong>economic driving<\/strong>, we will be able to drive more safely on the roads and drastically reduce the number of accidents that occur on them.<br \/>\nThere are several <strong>aspects of economic driving<\/strong> that will help us to<strong> increase road safety<\/strong>.<br \/>\nFor example, maintaining <strong>good safety distances<\/strong> so that we always have enough space to use sufficient reaction time.<br \/>\nAnother thing that will help us will be to maintain a <strong>constant average speed<\/strong>, reducing the peak speeds that occur on the routes.<br \/>\nAnd, of course, the most important thing is to be attentive and exercise<strong> preventive driving<\/strong>, anticipating everything that may happen on the road.<br \/>\nEverything that happens around our vehicle can lead us to an accident, being attentive and acting in a preventive way we can avoid many of the accidents that occur today.        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-337\" src=\"https:\/\/marbesula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/reduccion-consumo.jpg\" alt=\"a person loading his

<strong>Efficient driving<\/strong> is based on improving our driving techniques to obtain all the benefits we have seen.<br \/>\nWe are now going to see some techniques in which we can improve to make our driving as efficient and preventive as possible.   <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Do not use first gear except for starting: second gear should be engaged within a couple of seconds of starting the vehicle or after 5-6 meters of driving.<\/li>\n<li>Anticipate gear changes: you should accelerate progressively, without stepping on the pedal abruptly.<br \/>\nIn gasoline engines it is convenient to change gear between 1500 and 2500 revolutions.<br \/>\nIn diesel engines the revolutions at the time of changing gear should be between 1300 and 2000.  <\/li>\n<li>Use high gears at low revs for as long as possible: as long as it does not involve any risk, of course, and you can maintain control over the vehicle and time for your response in case you need it.<\/li>\n<li>Moderate speed: for<strong> economical driving<\/strong> we must moderate our speed, this will increase road safety and significantly lower fuel consumption.<\/li>\n<li>Get used to using the engine brake: when decelerating, lift your foot off the accelerator and leave the vehicle in gear, so the engine will act as a brake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>  In Marbesula Driving School we teach you all the <strong>principles of efficient driving<\/strong>, so that you leave here driving in the best possible way; the safest, most economical and less polluting.<br \/>\nContact <a href=\"https:\/\/marbesula.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\"
