I don’t think anyone in Clarksville is doing this!

This might save you a little money. But is it worth feeling like a weirdo every time you drive?

I’m already nervous driving around in Clarksville, now I need to worry about spilling a bowl of water?

People online are talking about a hack to save money on gas. Just drive around with an open bowl of WATER in your car.

The idea is it makes you slow down and not accelerate too fast. Staying under the speed limit is more fuel efficient. And flooring it when the light turns green can lower your gas mileage by up to 40%, according to the E.P.A.

If you want to try it, just put a bowl of water on your passenger’s seat, and do your best not to spill it.

One expert says small cereal bowls work great. But don’t fill it the whole way. Leave an inch or two at the top.

If you don’t want to drive around with a bowl of water, watch some gas saving tips!
