Is Cruise Control Useful When Braking?
1 Answers
Cruise control is not useful when braking. When the driver steps on the brake, the cruise control function will automatically turn off. After activating the vehicle's cruise control and setting the desired speed, the driver no longer needs to press the accelerator pedal with their right foot, as the vehicle will automatically maintain the preset speed. Cruise control is designed to maintain a constant vehicle speed. Once the car is set to cruise mode, the engine's fuel supply is controlled by the computer, which continuously adjusts the fuel injection based on road conditions and driving resistance to keep the vehicle at the set speed without throttle input. Currently, cruise control systems have become standard equipment in mid-to-high-end cars.
