Why would you be using cruise control around parked cars?

[-] FatLegTed@piefed.social 6 points 4 months ago

Was going to ask the same question - cruise control is for open roads like motorways. Not around town. No wonder they had issues with it.

Cars broken down in the side of the road

I mean, you should be slowing down at least a bit when passing someone pulled over on the side of the road anyways, no? Just like going through a construction zone. It really depends on how much braking we're talking about.

Yes, but that's not regular.

If traffic is flowing, you can't just slow way down on the interstate for each broken or stopped car

Not sure what the laws are there, but here you need to slow down or change lanes.
