Driving with an automatic transmission, make sure to use all 4 gears of your car for going uphills and downhills and using the engine to act as a brake. I believe the advantages of this are increased fuel efficiency and less wear on the brake.

Do not ride motorcycles or mopeds. They are not safe.
Always drive with your hands at two and ten. This is very very difficult to maintain, but everytime you almost run into another car it becomes so clear that two and ten is the wisest possible thing you could do to maintain safety on the road.
Drive with your right foot on the gas, and your left leg relaxed on the foot rest. When you need to brake move your right foot over to the brake pedal. I’ve tried the right leg gas, left leg brake, and in the end it’s not sustainable. You’ve already trained yourself to use only the right foot, and for safety’s sake it’s best to stay with the way you learned.
Walk in order to:
1) get from one place to another
2) get fit
3) go for a walk
4) cool down after running
Only ever put bags, groceries, and parcels in the trunk of your car. If your trunk is not clean enough to do this, clean it.
The advantages of this are that you can easily accept unexpected passengers in your car because the seats aren’t covered in your items. Also, you never have to strain your arm muscles by placing heavy bags across the seats when sitting down. Also, you don’t risk breaking anything by throwing it over to the passenger side seat.
Never ever listen to the car radio. You will be taking in too much advertising and songs that someone you don’t trust is deciding to play. The only possible exception to this is local radio, WERS 88.9, for example.
Instead, use the ipod.
Listening to WAAF is allowed when working out at the WPI Gym.
When filling up gasoline and you’ve placed the cap back on your tank, close the door and knock on the car like it was a door. This way, you have a memory device to remind you that you’ve closed your gas tank. The advantages of this is that you don’t leave the lid of your gas tank on the roof of your car. listen

This system is not finalized. Sometimes when filling up gasoline it is nice to pay in cash because you can visit the cashier twice, using the expression I would like 10 on 2 or 50 on 4.
