    I was cruising down a local parkway with cyclists at the edge of the road. I was testing the cruise control. At certain points on the roadway, the laser system would cause the car to drop speed and slow up fast. It was a 60km/38mph speed limit. So is the system that sensitive that it reacted upon seeing the bikes? Or is there another reason such as speed was too slow?

    We have the laser cruise control in one of our vehicles and it does what you stated. There is also a setting to where you can set the desired distance before the ACC activates to slow down or to accelerate.
