It's the first part of his "Answer 2." That's just not correct. He wrote: "Answer 2: you CAN set the car's cruise control system to follow the speed limit." You can't.
If by "cruise control system" you mean the "actual car speed", then you are correct.
But by "cruise control system" I meant, simply, the part of the cruise control system that both indicates and will match the determined speed limit (and confidence level thereof) with the tick mark (solid or dashed) on the speedo. And which you can easily and quickly match with a simply binary driver input.
That part of the cruise control system matches the changing speed follows the speed limit. Automatically ... I dont have to anything at all. And whenever I want the cruise max speed to change to a new speed limit I ** don't have to dial it up or down** .. I simply pull the lever back and hold briefly the car max cruise matches the new speed limit.
I'm sure people were missing that functionality. It isn't obvious -- it also isn't totally automatic. But it doesn't require the driver to adjust the speed up or down a little or a lot -- it only requires the driver to input -- use the new set speed.
Sorry if makes your head explode. I find it to be very useful and as automatic as I wld want it to be given the inherent inaccuracies of the speed limit reading.
