>From the Wikipedia

"When the U.S. went on extended DST in 1974 and 1975 in response to the 1973
energy crisis, Department of Transportation studies found that observing DST
in March and April saved 10,000 barrels of oil a day, and prevented about
2,000 traffic injuries and 50 fatalities saving about U.S. $28 million in
traffic costs."
