Me, I try to drive as if both fuel and brakes cost money. I haven't won a race yet, but it is particularly satisfying to arrive a the red light they got to first, only to see it turn green and I don't have to touch the brakes.

I'm rarely late, either...

Years ago I learned that brakes convert energy to heat, and that heat is wasted. I drive in a manner to reduce waste.
