Energy/Gas Prices

Effective use of energy is learned behavior.

To conserve, we must slow down and find ways to do more with less. The benefits of fuel conservation are a healthier environment, financial savings and improved safety on our roads. The car or truck you drive, how it's maintained and where and how you drive are the most important factors in conserving fuel and staying safe behind the wheel.

For years, AAA has periodically published guides to car care and fuel economy. In 1943, AAA published its first guide, Keep 'em Rolling, to assist with gasoline rationing required by World War II.
