Adaptive Cruise - why does it require manual intervention from 0mph to resume driving in stop-and-go traffic

I Luv Lucy…

Fortunately, they have recently improved this and if you are facing forward with your eyes open there is no need to toggle the switch. It automatically resumes, no problem.

Since you don’t have the DDP I can see why you’d be confused tho.
Too bad the car can't see my eyes because of the odd placement of the sensor...

I adjusted the steering wheel so that the face sensor can see my eyes. The wheel blocks a portion of the top rim of the driver's display. I got used to it.

I'm glad you were able to do that. I would have to block a considerable chunk of the display for the sensor to see me. Not worth it to me
 
Agreed, I might be a happier man if I didn’t have the convenience of reading these threads while Drive Assist happily drives in the background…

It’s a nice feature, but with how great this car drives it’s not a need. $2,500 is a small price to pay for the software and hardware upgrade.

Re @LuvLucy you can still design and get a custom Air ordered via Lucid, so if you didn’t see any stock ones to your liking it’s an option for other people to go that route.

Also, writing this post while being driven feels a bit like Cigars at the Ritz… (inspired by the Queen song)

Yes, driving this car also feels like dining at the Ritz or The Reform Club. (or Providence LA)

What can I say?
