Nah, lowering the speed limit will reduce highway gas mileage, most newer cars with overdrive get their best mpg at 65-75 mph. As for self serve, they might try it on the turnpike but that ain't gonna fly here in NJ. NJ gas prices are already lower than PA and they have self serve. So it's not gonna reduce the price of gas but it would create some insane gas station antics with letting people pump their own gas. These are all lamebrain political suggestions so our elected officials can act like they are doing something about it. What I don't get is how some gas stations can be 20-25 cents a gallon cheaper than others. Here in Mercer county most of the gas is around $2.95-2.99 for regular and $3.09-3.18 for premium. Going up 202 on Saturday they were 2.85 for regular and 3.05 for premium. On Rt 1 yesterday I saw 2.79 for regular and 2.99 for premium. We're talking less than 30 miles separating these gas stations and there's a 20 cent/gallon difference!
