Abstract
A vehicle cruise control system includes a voice instruction inputting element 11. A driver inputs a desired voice instruction, which is digitally compared with several previously recorded voice instructions to identify the input instruction and alter the vehicle speed, cancel or resume the cruise control, etc. Manual control switch manipulation is thus avoided.
