I have been in situations where these safety measures could have caused an accident if I wasn't on the ball, typically around bike riders or pedestrians (most vulnerable).
I find Ford is down pat with cruise control and the like, they seem to put a lot of effort into getting those things right. As far as it goes, they've got throttle response, how the car responds to all your inputs and how things steer and stop down pat, Ford Europe made absolutely amazing cars.

Hyundai on the other hand, set it to 100, 92 up a hill, 115 down the hill, sometimes it will respond to throttle inputs immediately, other times it wont.
