How Does Adaptive Cruise Control Work?

In this video, we break down what Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is and how it works in modern cars. Learn how this advanced feature enhances safety and convenience by automatically adjusting your car's speed in response to traffic. We also explore how ACC fits into the broader world of autonomous driving and the benefits it offers for long drives and congested traffic.

my subaru acsent hs all this and it took a few weeks to get used to it, but, man i love it..helps big time!

It works. My car has it, I have driven other cars with it. Biggest issue? It reacts much differently than I do and is much more liberal with brake usage.

Other than that, the more you pay attention to while driving, the better.

Oh man i love ACC..

Use to drive long distances (350km/217m) with my old 2007 Twingo...
Hell man, I can assure how tired you can get, if you arrive..

It's all no more, when I changed my Vehicle to a 2019 model with ACC..
Since I got the new vehicle, I constantly look for highways, even if have to accept driving short detours to reach the highway..

ACC works great in my Tacoma. It’s on over 95% of the time when I drive.

In using ACC, does the brake lights function for those cars behind your vehicle? How do they know you are slowing down/breaking?

[princesethadu-krah]

Does that mean when ACC is activated, the driver does not need to put his foot on accelerator, since the vehicle drives itself? Can you explain

[ronodowd]

Pay attention know your space between vehicles and if you are tried breaks or rest or other drivers respect my thoughts

its going to have to get *much* better before its worth upgrading from my old-style cruise control.
