Mostly driving style.. I was over 16 for a while but my job now has me on back roads sp its dropped a bit.
I try to get up to speed as quickly as possible (without completely flooring it) then use no throttle or just enough to maintain speed. Going downhill I pick up speed and let it fall going back uphill. Rarely use the brakes, just allow myself to coast whenever possible unless its going to annoy someone behind me. If you anticipate the traffic or lights ahead you can let yourself slow down without braking and often you can time it so you dont even need to stop completely
Works beautifully and I really dont even think about it anymore and dont have to drive any slower than I used to.
