My Audi e-tron has this habit of switching the adaptive cruise control to the on-ramp speed limit even when I’m in the middle of the freeway.
It’s something I’ve learned to deal with but the sudden attempt to break from 70 to 55 is pretty bad especially as it’s unexpected for other drivers around you.
While I’m sure Audi are much worse at updating their software to fix known issues than Tesla I find myself skeptical that the mix of hacks cars use to implement these features scale well, especially in construction zones. Hence I’m pretty content with radar based cruise control and some basic lane maintenance and then doing the rest of the driving myself.
I can imagine if my car were slightly better at some of these things I’d be a significantly worse safety driver as I’d start to be lulled into a false sense of security.
