setting cruise-control not to exceed 57 mph on highways;
gentle braking, coasting to all traffic stops; etc? (the list goes on.)

Thats what Im thinking. Now in real life just try coasting trying to catch the green light gate from 6 blocks away and see how the folks behind you react. :rotfl:

Being retired, I'm suddenly thrust back into my childhood soapbox derby experiences.

"Half-price for seniors." Now that I'm a "senior", they'll probably bump up the age bracket. :rotfl:
