I use coasting / "Zero Fuel Gliding" as an integral part of my technique. When in town, about 300-500 yards before a red light I let off the gas to start my glide. It seems as though most drivers are less inclined to ride your rear or zoom around you as you approach a red light ... well that it is dependent upon the maturity of the other drivers. I also extend out my braking in town when the battery is at around 4 bars. I've notice when I have a fully charged battery, the IMA really helps fuel economy.
