I struggle even with cruise control

Not because there's any particular issue with letting the car drive itself (mines automatic so I'm totally on board with the car doing the work) but no other bugger on the road can maintain a constant speed so it takes too much concentration to make sure the cruise control isn't going to drive me up someone's back end
