Before You Cruise

Cruise control is a system installed in some vehicles which automatically controls the vehicle’s speed. The driver is able to set a required speed at which the vehicle takes over the acceleration of the vehicle until the driver brakes or cancels the system.

Cruise control can help to improve fuel efficiency by maintaining the same speed and can also reduce the chances of a driver speeding inadvertently. However, it can be dangerous if drivers do not know how to use it correctly and when to use it.
