Speeding Costs Us $22M Daily | Science News

A new study reveals that if U.S. drivers simply slowed down by one minute per commute, they could save over $22 million daily—plus cut 60,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions. Based on 120 million trips, researchers found 43% involved speeding, which burns more gas due to air resistance. Adjusted for 2026 gas prices, savings could hit $26 million a day. The engineers behind the data say the cost of speeding is real—and it’s up to us to change it. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
