PURPOSE: To provide a cruise control system, capable of control the speed of a motor vehicle properly in a traffic jam where motor vehicles are moving at various speeds in multi-lane vehicle paths. CONSTITUTION: A cruise control system for a motor vehicle 10 includes a forward looking distance sensor adapted to sense vehicles 11, 12, 13 moving in the same path as the equipped vehicle 10 or in paths adjacent to the equipped vehicle 10, and the system tracks vehicles 11, 12, 13 in front of or in paths adjacent to the equipped vehicle 10 and controls braking or acceleration of the equipped vehicle 10 in response to vehicles 11, 12, 13 travelling in front of or on converging paths with the equipped vehicle, so as to maintain a safe distance between the equipped vehicle 10 and vehicles 11, 12, 13 in or entering its path. |
