Cruise control, a prevalent automotive feature, enables drivers to maintain a set speed without continuously applying pressure to the accelerator pedal. Its use, however, becomes a matter of safety when towing.
While cruise control can alleviate driver fatigue and improve fuel efficiency under normal driving conditions, towing adds additional weight and alters vehicle dynamics. Using cruise control while towing can be dangerous, as it may not respond appropriately to changes in road conditions or the added load.
