Sick and tired of the rising cost of gas? Take a tip from the guys in brown — make right-hand turns.

United Parcel Service advises its drivers to make right-hand turns on deliveries to save time and money, WEWS-TV in Cleveland reports, and Joe Sixpack can too.

"I always try to make right turns, especially with gas at $3," said Ray Rivera, a Cleveland-area UPS driver.

With 88,000 trucks on the road, UPS tries to save money wherever it can.

"They'll make right-hand turns only all up the street and they'll try to do the same coming back, especially on major streets," Phil Kane of UPS told the news team.

Angie Lau, a consumer specialist for WEWS-TV, tested the right-hand turn theory to see if veering right can actually help consumers' pocketbooks. Their test found that a right-hand turn trip actually took a bit longer.

Overall, drivers should try to make right-hand turns whenever possible, WEWS-TV advises, taking care to try to drive the shortest distance possible to save gas.
