Question: Cruise control should NOT be used in:
Answer options:
- Cities ✅ Slippery, wet, snowy or icy conditions
- Sunny weather
- Light traffic
Correct answer: Slippery, wet, snowy or icy conditions
Explanation: Using cruise control in slippery, wet, snowy, or icy conditions is hazardous because if the tires lose traction, the vehicle may accelerate to maintain speed, causing a dangerous skid or hydroplaning. While cruise control is generally avoided in congested stop-and-go city driving, "cities" is too broad an option, and sunny weather or light traffic actually represent ideal conditions for its safe operation. Ministry of Transportation safety guidelines dictate maintaining manual throttle control in poor traction conditions to ensure immediate driver responsiveness. Recognizing when to disable automated vehicle features in adverse weather is a common defensive driving concept tested on the Ontario G1 exam.
