Because it's bogus. These things all follow a pattern - the "forward this to as many people as you can" language is a huge red flag that it's just another urban legend. Here's what 38 seconds of research would have found for you, had you expended the effort: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/outrage/nogas.htm > MILLION PEOPLE!!!

I have never, ever, seen any kind of legitimate true message that had that kind of wording in it. Please. Do some research before passing this sort of stuff on. It may be well intentioned, but it's false. The only effect of people following it is to use up their energies in something that doesn't help, rather than something that would (like checking the pressure in their tires, which actually helps reduce gas consumption).
