Safety of cruise control systems

Moin, based on the topic: http://www.motor-talk.de/forum/tempomat-bis-250-t4804397.html Let’s discuss the safety of these facilities here. Let’s do a few trick points: – modern cars switch off the cruiser as soon as an accident is detected by the airbag system or other sensors – retrofits or older systems are problematic. I don’t know what it looks like, for example, for Golf 3, whether the MSG shuts down the cruiser or even adopts a gas signal. if the airbag-Stg. reports an accident – faint drivers with foot on the gas tend to pass through the gas rather than slip off. At least I have already seen two accidents where the drivers passed out, gave full throttle and then were stopped by a wall or fence – driving a car remains a risk – in the question whether the cruise control should be limited one could also discuss a general limitation at once…
