Yeah, I do more than that. I use adaptive cruise control everywhere. I hardly use the accelerator except to get started.

I figure that the computer does a better job of using the exact amount of energy to keep the car moving at my desired speed, and instantly compensates for changes in the grade of the road and the speed of traffic better than I can.

That’s great, and so I guess we’ve answered the question of how an EV can be more efficient in stop and go traffic.
