Please explain to me how it "doesn't work".
My understanding is that an object already in motion requires less force (gas) to stay in motion, compared to bringing an object at rest into motion. Why else would they need to differentiate city vs highway MPG?
Are you familiar with the concept of hypermiling? If not check it out!
It doesn't work because nobody else does it. I'm stuck in traffic with a bajillion people and 99% of them either brake or gas, no coast. In some ideas scenario where everyone does it, sure, but in real life it's a no go. But I still do it.
Hypermiling is silly.
