Somewhat analogous to letting your 16 year old drive. Quite a bit more stressful than just driving yourself.

  Exactly. My car has adaptive cruise control. In slow traffic, if the car in front comes to a stop, it'll also stop. But what happens if it's turned off? I honestly don't know and don't have the balls to find out, because so far it just keeps getting closer to the car in front. So if I accidentally pause it then drive the same way I would with it enabled, I might(?) rear-end someone. It'd be the height of stupidity if it does just keep rolling forward, but who knows...

    When I bought my last car, I was sort of excited about adaptive cruise control and lane keeping. But maybe because most driving I do (which isn't a huge amount) is on pretty busy roads I've sort of avoided really using it.

    Can’t you just look up if your car has this feature? My old car did. It was great. Probably saved me from an accident or two.
