If you give people just the right amount of petrol to get from A to B they will drive slower and safer.
people will not be driving fast cuz they are low on fuel, they will not drive like ***** cuz they cant rev it that high.
What do you think?
Have you ever driven on low low fuel when the light comes on? if so do you remember how your driving was?

Ahh, but that theory goes out the windows if traffic slows to less than 40mph, as most cars cannot use 5th (or top gear) and therefore use more fuel

Interesting idea though

Thanks mate.

I kind of work for the gov. I work 5 days a week and the 5th day of pay goes to the gov.
Come to think about it its a stupid idea since i kind of design speed cameras for a living.
(B4 anybody asks. yes i have been done for speeding doing 35mph in a 30 zone)

I think it would go something like this:

- someone runs out of fuel and blocks the road
- traffic jam forms, lots of cars sitting there idling
- having sat there queueing for a while, everyone else runs out of fuel too.
- total gridlock. Undoubtedly safe, but completely useless.

Good idea mate!

Perhaps we could also introduce a scheme where fabric was saved by making skirts only just long enough to cover a lass's cheeks and tops that only just cover the nips ??
