I quite agree. As I mentioned I never use my cruise control at all. I was just pointing out that modern electronic nannies have likely made the conventional wisdom that cruise control in rain can cause unintended acceleration not applicable to cars that have these traction control devices.

I'm not denying it is still best to maintain full control of your vehicle in such conditions
