When I go into a store and its always 50% giants and 50% patriots apparel
I'm capable of maintaining a constant speed without cruise control, but the people who can't should use it more often. Like you said, it results in a lot of unnecessary overtaking loops.I used to use cruise control as much as possible when I had my own car, but between that and the navigator I felt I was slipping into autopilot, which made me uncomfortable. Now I just use cruise control when I've got wide open highway.
I use my cruise control all the time, no matter what the speed is. I have a couple of long, 25 mph roads on my way to work that are always cop heavy early in the morning, so I just roll down that those sumbitches at a smooth pace.
That's because you're clearly someone who is capable of driving properly and anticipating the road ahead, giving you plenty of time to turn the cruise control off if need be, but in no need of constantly changing your speed up and down and up and down and up and down because you're never quite sure that you're doing it right in the first place.
I'm with you 100%. It's such a simple thing to control that I'm surprised so many seem to be put off by using it on more than just highways.
Where is your foot physically while you're "cruising" down these 25mph, presumably residential, roads?
I don't drive much but when I did, I always hated that fuckn guy who would block me when trying to merge back into a lane. Granted I may be driving on the shoulder to get there, but what exactly is he doing? Why does he care?
