This paper contributes to knowledge on the most appropriate driver education interventions and elements of driver behavior requiring modification for reducing C02 emissions from road transport. Ultimately, this research could contribute to improvements and reductions in C02 emissions which in turn will benefit communities and the environment. The simulator element of the research study and driving simulator were funded by The Regional Development Agency ONE NORTH EAST, as part of the Zero Emissions Transport (ZET) Programme. The on-road element of the study was conducted in collaboration with David Whiting of Fleet Technique, Sunderland.
