On open roads, cruise control can improve your driving experience and help save on gas. But, many drivers utilize it in conditions where it may actually be harmful. Cruise control is a sophisticated, but simple enough system that while it takes the place of the driver's leg on the accelerator, it does not eliminate the driver's direct involvement at critical times. Automated speed control can cause an increase in reaction time and loss of vehicle stability in adverse weather conditions, traffic, or road conditions. It's important to know when to turn off cruise control as well as when to use it.
