The blizzard of fuel alternatives can be very confusing, so I wanted to show how the different options were related. It's easier to follow discussions about alternative fuels when you have the overview. You're right about the tremendous amount of fuel wasted when people are stuck in traffic. That's why <a href="http://environmentaldefense.org/page.cfm?tagID=1253" rel="nofollow">congestion pricing</a> in big cities is so important to health and the climate. In the meantime, I agree - pay attention to mph for city driving. Or better yet, don't drive in the city!! I live in New York and I either walk or ride my bike to work.

Most driving is done going back and forth to work and is mostly city driving 35 miles an hour or under. A prius gets 40mpg in the city;of course you know that.
