Tammy Gobert is with AAA MidAtlantic and joins Les Sinclair to talk about gas prices.

AAA offers the following fuel savings tips for people frustrated with high gas prices:

1. Accelerate gradually. Avoid jackrabbit starts.
2. Anticipate your stops. When approaching a red light, let your foot off the gas as early as possible.
3. Avoid long warm-ups in the morning. They’re unnecessary and waste fuel.
4. Use air conditioning. Today’s air conditioners create less drag on the engine than driving with the windows open.
5. Maintain recommended tire pressure. Low pressure reduces fuel economy and can damage tires.
6. Keep the air filter clean. Clogged filters reduce fuel economy and increase exhaust emissions.
7. Slow down. If you travel at 60 mph instead of 70 mph on your 20-mile highway commute, you would save about 1.3 gallons of gas in a five-day work week.
8. Combine errands. If possible, park in a central spot and walk from place to place.
9. Don’t use your trunk for storage. The heavier your car, the more fuel it uses.
10. Shop around for the best price. Gas prices can vary tremendously, which means it can pay to use the AAA mobile app to find the cheapest gas station near you.
