Ar0ge 07/08/22 3:11:38 PM #9:	Usually only in long distances on the high way, to rest my foot and make sure I don't go toof are above the limit. My car also automatically keeps a certain distance from cars in front of me, so it'll slow down automatically accordingly. It's pretty convenient. <cite>Ar0ge posted [p:966433846] in Why do you...
