I was stuck in traffic, and had my window down (which I rarely do), but I was caught up in light to light traffic with three different cars equipped with the auto shut-off and auto-start feature to conserve fuel when the car is not in motion. Over the course of about a half hour or so, these cars must have shut themselves off and then restarted probably a dozen times.
1--Does it really save that much fuel?
2--How much extra wear and tear is this putting on the battery, starter, and even things like A/C compressors and cooling systems?
