Ya, mental well being and less stress sounds about right. Going for a couple hour drive and using it for even a part of it can leave me feeling better off when I get to my destination.
It’s not something I always turn on for entire trips either, I still do a mix of both, but lets say I’m on a 2hour trip and I’ve been driving regularly for 30 minutes and I’m starting to feel it, I can turn it on and there’s just this instant noticeable reduction, but then maybe there’s some construction or something ahead where I want to take over, so I take over and then drive the next 30 minutes myself again.
The best analogy is probably just regular cruise control if you’ve ever used it. You still gotta pay attention and be ready to alter your speed, but you’re not suddenly forgetting about speed while it’s on, but you’re also not getting worn down by having to maintain it manually.
For example - Feeling frustrated or annoyed by that car in front of you that’s constantly slowing down so you always have to be modulating your speed, but you can’t necessarily pass? Well it can just follow it and modulate it for you, well I can assure you, it’s less annoying when you don’t have to manage that yourself.
You always need to be ready to brake or press the accelerator depending on the situation, and I move my foot around depending on the situation. Just driving on the open highway, I’ll be ready for the accelerator in case of any phantom braking, coming up to a light with another vehicle in front of me, I’ll move it to the brake until it’s clear the car is braking at my comfort level. It’s all situational, and if you’re paying attention like you’re supposed to be, it’ll just be natural on which one you are prepared for.
Stop and go traffic it’s just making sure it does actually stop as it inches forward a few feet and needs to come to a stop again but without needing to actually manage it myself.
