Who uses automobile cruise control? Unscientific survey.?

Question

Under what circumstances do you use the cruise control? I have talked with people who NEVER use their cruise control, some who seldom use it, and those who use it only on long trips.

Answer 1

I use mine where ever i go. The only time I don't use it is in town or very heavy traffic. It helps in getting better gas mileage

Answer 2

I use cruise control all the time and am convinced that I usually exceed the EPA gas economy numbers because I use cruise control. I recommend using cruise control if the conditions are favorable. I use it during my drive to work on the freeway (about 12 miles) and anytime I'm on the open highway without a lot of other cars around.

Answer 3

I use cruise control on the highway only. there are times during the ride that I do take it off. If I am going up a really steep grade hill then I will take off the cruise.
Other than that I use it when on the highway it gives me a bit more freedom.. and my toes dont cramp up :)

Answer 4

maximum cruise administration won't activate under 25mph yet could have not have been given any risky effects. i exploit mine for all time in any shrink under the national velocity shrink 30, 40, 50. it could have a delicate result on intake yet on condition that activation is accomplished whilst the vehicle is interior the incorrect equipment for that velocity if vehicle in all probability no longer a good number of difference. examine your husbands velocity next time he's in a 30 zone see what the version is. playstation Gloucester must be between the worst counties interior the united kingdom for velocity cameras i think of they offered a load in a sale and then got here upon handy money making places to place them.

Answer 5

I use it frequently on the highway to avoid speeding tickets.

I set it at maximum 10% over the speed limit. Most cops will let you pass or give you a wrist slap with no ticket.

Also stay in the inside lane. They usually look for the fast guys in the outside (passing lanes)

Answer 6

I only use it on the highway - not country roads where you are more apt to fall asleep and it's usually too curvy/ups/downs to be able to maintain cruise control - and usually speed limits changes alot!@

Answer 7

I use it when there is a cop behind me because I have a lead foot. And also on the highway

Answer 8

I have a lead foot so I use my anytime I am not in the city with a lot of red lights

Answer 9

i use it when driving on highways or interstates that i will be on for more then a few miles. When i am driving someone else's car since the one i have now does not have it.

Answer 10

I never use it - I like to be in control every second!
