Since this thread has turned into a combination of my house/incoming baby/Accord talk I figured I would post about the Accord's Adaptive Cruise Control. We have this in Emily's CRV but it's clunky and doesn't work that well. It brakes way too early when it senses another car even on the closest follow setting. Having this feature in my Accord I figured I would never use it.
Decided to try it out in traffic earlier this week. Wow. Set the speed for 35-40mph and the closest follow setting and it accelerates and brakes pretty well. Keeps up with traffic while leaving about a car to a car and half length in front of you. It's not as smooth as a human can be with the gas and brake, but it's not bad at all. Technology is a hell of a thing.
