What sort of consulting do you do?

Everything that I have read indicates that using cruise control lessens a driver's attention to the task of driving.

I have also read that a good driver can easilly get better mileage than cruise control. One thing that I do is to speed up slightly on downhills, and let the speed drop off a bit on uphills.
