What consumes fuel more on the road? When you drive slowly or when you on high speed? It's kind of confusing. With this economy one is even confused.

Not too slow and not too fast. Somewhere in between

None of them. The only problem eith speed is if you have to apply sudden brake after acceleration. It will be a wast of fuel.

That’s why when i an driving i try avoiding the brake once the car is on motion just allow it to go like that if you know the road is not clear ahaead dont speed. Drive the car like there is no brake in it.

exactly, fuel management is not really about speeding or not speeding, it is more about managing how you brake the car (brake pedal) , if people can learn to do this rather than focus on the throttle pedal, then they will save more fuel.
