Speeding Costs More Than You Think | San Jose News

New research from the University of Minnesota reveals that speeding saves less than a minute on average—but costs drivers big in gas and pollution. Analyzing over 120 million trips, scientists found 43% of drivers exceeded speed limits, wasting 12% of trip time. Even EVs lose efficiency when speeding. If everyone stuck to limits, Americans could save $26 million and 7 million gallons of fuel daily. States like Nevada and Florida see more speeding, while Montana and Wyoming have fewer speeders. It’s a simple, free win: slower driving = more money, less pollution, and barely longer commutes. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
