		<description><![CDATA[Some predictions have gas prices heading to $5.00 a gallon, which would easily beat the record of $4.00 from 2008. If you haven’t started thinking about how the prices effect your driving, you probably soon will. Texas Transportation Institute Researcher, Joe Zietsman, says most people don’t realize the money they can save just by changing the way they drive. “TTI studies and others show that at least 10 percent of your gas bill can be eliminated just by what we call ‘eco-driving.’ ”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A new nationwide analysis suggests that distractions – not alcohol – are contributing to a steady increase in nighttime fatal crashes for teenage drivers.

The trends are illustrated in a report produced by the Teens in the Driver Seat Center of the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI). The analysis that produced the report examined the effects of lighting conditions on crashes from 1999 to 2008 in all 50 U.S. states, along with the presence of alcohol as a factor in those crashes. The findings suggest something other than alcohol is pushing the nighttime fatal crash numbers up for teen drivers. The most likely reason, researchers say, is the use of cell phones.
