I have been driving for 25 years and I never used cruise control, now I am learning how to use it. lol

hello guys, since we started to use cruise control it really makes it easier and less tired on road trips.
A big thank you for whoever found it ✍🏿👏🏿💯

I’ve never known what cruise control was for? And attempted to use it randomly throughout the years but never saw of felt the difference so I shall definitely give this a go when I’m on my next road trip.

If driving on highway to advoid getting a ticket set cruise control to to like 3 miles less than the speed limit ( for example if speed limit is 55 set cruise control to like 52 to 53 mph and you will not get pulled over for speeding ) good luck on using cruise control

Passed my test last Thursday and this channel has definitely helped me a lot!

Thanks. It’s great to see it explained in detail clearly. Especially useful for long distance motorway driving provided you don’t hog the middle lane or do 100 in the right lane

Most thorough explanation of cruise control I could find!

[eddiemperor]

Thank you for this video this helps greatly on long straight trips. Always be alert as you would be in standard when using Cruise Control.

Would like to say I find the limiter just as relaxing; sometimes use Cruise but rarely as I find as soon as you start using it the motorway will either slow down or the limit will change (on the overhead gantries) and so you need to either reset it or brake. Prefer the limiter. Can keep your foot on the gas to the floor and not worry about it.

Could you please do a video about what to do when an emergency vehicle needs to get past. I failed my test today because I moved over to the left for an ambulance but accidentally went on the kerb

I'm glad I've found this, you've explained it properly, thank you.

[mabb]

[robertwing]

My car has cruise control it is a good thing to have on the car

[AndrewJosephActor]

Thankyou for doing this video x. Just bought a new fiesta and had no idea how to use the cruise control

[redlantern]

are you able to press the operate the brake while cruise control is on? or do you have to cancel/pause it to use the brakes?

[preciouss]

Ive been driving for 8 years and i used cruise control first time today on the highway and i set the speed for 70 and i just dont like the feeling because it scares me how my car automatically just speed itself that quick. I was having panic attack until i turn it off. My fiance does it alot but dont like it

[harrydebling]

Your video on cruise control is very good. However you did not mention not to use the cruise control in the wet due to the increased risk of aquaplaning

[Pichipieify]

Wtf my car have this for 3 years now and i didn't know what it is. I was missing so much from not knowing this.

I have been told by my driving instructor that I can book my driving test. Would I be able to go to the test centre without my instructor to take my driving test as it would be cheaper ?
Thanks
