If you drive slowly, please move over

In a recent letter to the editor, a physics professor wrote that accelerating slowly, driving more slowly and coasting to a stop between red lights will save fuel. He’s right, but it’s arguable that this style also would cause you to miss the timed green light, resulting in idling through a red light, wasting the savings.

In any event, I would simply ask the good professor and his ilk to please stay in the right-hand lanes when using this style of driving. Thank you.
