In Reply to: OT: Never use cruise control when it is raining or icy posted by John Marks on November 12, 2004 at 09:44:16:
The recommendation is a good one, but...If the wheels lose contact with the road, the car can't accelerate. It's a physical impossibility.
If the wheels lose contact with the road with the cruise control on, they don't start spinning faster. The cruise control keeps the speed of rotation constant - that's the whole point of cruise control.
This is a chain letter, just another form of SPAM. Anybody who is on the internet and has any regard for other people knows not to forward chain letters.
Are you trolling us?
