that was put on bythe government for saving fuel/mileage by reducing the use of fuel? Someone told me a story about a man who bought a new car ata dealership(which contained this part)and took a trip to another state and when he returned he still had nearly a full tank of fuel.What part were they using to make this happen?

We had it back in the mid-70s in response to the oil embargo. Nowadays with gas prices so high, it makes sense to bring it back. When Bill Clinton repealed the law in 1995, gas was at about $1.09 a gallon. Times are much different now, obviously.
Here are some of the arguments I’ve heard against this:
1. “People won’t comply with it” (well then, start handing out more tickets, and increase the fines, and then that’ll teach people)
2. “States may ignore it” (well then do what the Nixon administration did, and withhold federal highway funds from the states if they don’t enforce it)
3. “People will be late” (that’s their problem for not leaving the house early enough)
Even with gas prices so ridiculously high, most Americans don’t seem too interested in slowing down to conserve gas, even as they b-tch about the high cost at the pumps.
Conservation is something Americans just don’t have in them. So we need to be forced. It’s for our own good.

Even if a city bus costs $100-$125k, the suburbs are the towns which need to add bus service. Most people who live and work already drive buses. But out in the suburbs you are stuck driving your car everywhere. Even to a grocery store, the way towns are built, there are few sidewalks in which to walk. If the U.S. wants to conserve fuel why aren’t they just doing simple things like adding the buses. (Yes i know buses add to the air pollution, but that’s a price many of us would give up in an effort to lower the price of gas. By doing this temporarily (until prices come down) the effect is no different than someone who blows a cigar puff into the clean air – it will dissipate and return to normal in short time. More buses, more public transportation NOW!! Maybe install some of those airport flat elevator walkways to zip people around too.
