‘Low on Gas’ Planning Prevents Panicking
If you are driving and the gas tank suddenly shows that it is nearing ‘E’, don’t panic, you still have some time, but just make sure you follow the next steps carefully. First off, pull over as soon as possible and check the quickest and best route to the nearest gas station so as to avoid making any wrong turns which could cost valuable gas at this point. Also, turn off the air conditioning and heat, and the stereo, and try to drive at a slow and steady rate as much as you can.

When Does ‘E’ Really Mean Empty?
All drivers know that ‘E’ means ‘Empty’ and is not a good sign on a long drive. But not all drivers know that you actually have longer than you may think when this sign appears and the gas tank is truly empty. This doesn’t mean ignore it, just don’t panic immediately, and take the tips on the previous page. But having a chart such as this miles-to-empty estimation chart is also really useful in being prepared. Although it is not always accurate as there are so many factors to consider, it can be pretty helpful.
