Yikes! I’d be a nervous wreck after just a couple of days.
- abtinf 9mo agoYou learn when it’s good and bad. It definitely has a “personality”. It is awesome in certain situations, like bumper to bumper traffic. I kept it for a couple months after the trial, but canceled because the situations it’s good at aren’t the situations I usually face when driving.
- daveguy 9mo agoThe most basic adaptive cruise control is "awesome" in bumper to bumper traffic.
- nothercastle 9mo agoFor some reason many manufacturers intentionally disable it at low speeds or won’t let it restart from stop. Super annoying and entirely unnecessary
- techjamie 9mo agoI understand not restarting from a stop unprompted. There are simply too many situations on the road where automatically moving from a stop may be undesirable in case the driver isn't paying attention. Stop signs, four way stops, yield situations, probably more. Safer overall to make it an intentioned action by the driver.
- nothercastle 9mo agoI kind of get it but it reality sucks in bumper to bumper. But why cut off at 25mph? Like I can’t use it in a camera zone to maintain snail speed below the camera threshold
