Walk to destinations less than one mile away.
Last comment by user_915 on 10 Dec 2010:Description
Walk to destinations less than one mile away rather than driving your personal vehicle. At a brisk pace, the walk will take about 15 minutes, in some cases the same amount of time as getting the car going, maneuvering traffic, and finding a parking space, in addition to the fuel savings.Tags
