Anti-idling – why? Excessive idling wastes money and fuel With modern vehicles it is usually better to turn off and restart the engine rather than to keep it running Reduce emissions Saving fuel Operational efficiency

Cleaner Air for London

Anti-idling – why? Fuel = emissions Less fuel = less emission s Less emissions = cleaner air Good to be green and to be seen to be green Helps to win work

[Company Name] and anti-idling Engine idling is... ‘The running of an engine which is not required for the examination or operation of machinery other than that used for driving the vehicle’ ‘You MUST NOT leave a parked vehicle unattended with the engine running or leave a vehicle engine running unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary on a public road’ Highway Code, paragraph 123

Company policy In order to minimise vehicle emissions that negatively impact on the environment and health, [company name] is committed to reducing vehicle idling times at depots, in traffic queues and at any other times unnecessary idling takes place. The company actively encourages drivers to reduce levels of idling

What does this mean for you? You are responsible for ensuring your vehicle does not idle unnecessarily You/your vehicle will be actively monitored and idling time reported by driver/vehicle Any fines incurred for unnecessary idling will be paid by you

What are our anti-idling rules? Don’t leave an unattended vehicle’s engine running Don’t leave the engine running in the depot Don’t leave the engine running when you are parked up, or when you’re on a break Don’t leave the engine running during loading and unloading Cab heaters are provided for cold starts and defrosting – use them! If you anticipate being stationary for more than one minute then switch off your engine as soon as you are stopped

MYTH... When it’s cold I need to keep my vehicle and passengers warm or warm up my engine...BUSTER It can take up to an hour for an engine to cool down. Turning off your engine, but keeping the ignition on and the fan blowing, will provide warm air for some time. If you are concerned about passenger comfort, keep the engine idling to an absolute minimum in warm and cold weather.

MYTH... Starting an engine causes more pollution than idling....BUSTER No. Emissions testing research shows that turning off an engine and restarting it after a minute or longer causes less pollution than keeping the engine idling and uses less fuel.

MYTH... The engine needs to stay on to keep the battery fully charged...BUSTER No. Modern batteries need less engine running time. Motorists rarely need to carry jump leads.

MYTH... It is better to idle the vehicle as turning the engine off and on wears it out....BUSTER No. Ignitions in modern cars have eliminated this problem. Idling dirties your engine with incomplete combustion increasing wear and tear. Maintaining your vehicle is important for preventing breakdowns and reducing air pollution.

MYTH... Catalytic converters need to be hot to work properly...BUSTER Yes, but an idling engine does not keep a catalytic converter warm. They retain their heat for about 25 minutes after an engine is switched off anyway.

Our anti-idling strategy...

Our anti-idling strategy... technology

Key facts 4,300 equivalent number of deaths are caused each year from exposure to London’s air pollution An idling engine will leave soot deposits that can build up and cause oil contamination. This can damage engine components, including cylinders and exhaust systems. This is true for petrol as well as diesel engines With modern vehicles, the cost of switching off the engine and starting up again is usually less than the cost of leaving the engine idling

Summary Idling of engines wastes fuel and money, harms the environment and impacts on air quality and health TURN IT OFF!
