Lincoln and Jeep are next to join the hands-free driver assistance party Chris Davies - Jun 16, 2021, 3:28pm CDT Your options for hands-free driving assistance in the US are about to increase, with Lincoln and Jeep both confirming that they have updates to their smart cruise control systems in the pipeline. Lincoln ActiveGlide and Jeep Hands Free Active Drive Assist won’t make your car an autonomous vehicle, but they could each ease some of the stress on the highway. Both automakers currently offer adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping assistance on many if not all of their models. That system typically maintains pace with the vehicle in front – generally using a combination of forward-facing radar and cameras – with the driver able to adjust the distance in-between, plus holds the vehicle’s position in the center of the lane.
