      So you don’t call the cops when you overtake them and see then eating a bowl of cereal, jerking it, while watching Flinstones.

      I would love to have an indicator for adaptive cruise control because the way it only reacts to the car right in front of you rather aggressively means it causes shockwave traffic jams unless the human driver behind you keeps enough distance.

        Humans are already experts at causing shockwave traffic jams, so I wouldn’t count on them to reduce them.
