When the road is slightly wet or is about to freeze or the ice is about to melt your tires don’t complete make contact with the road. You have no traction or grip. The result is your wheels spin and spin. If at the same time you have your CRUISE CONTROL ON, then the car speeds up to maintain speed, but it can’t, because there is no traction. The car continues to speed up.
However, if and when the wheels do grab what happens to you? You lose control of the car!
You are lucky if you don’t have an accident.
NEVER DRIVE IN THE RAIN WITH YOUR CRUISE CONTROL ON.
