Also, I am sure that the 140kmh mark was used with radar based cruise. So if a car pulled out 500m ahead going 110, the car would slow down to 110 and be a safe distance behind.

As Zamler said, there are some assumptions, some "alleged" things in the story, and some intentional or unintentional sensationalism in the article. The guy shouldn't not have his eyes in the road, set the cruise to 140kmh, but as also mentioned, the car would handle most situations more then one would think.

And odd that going 140km on the QE2 is not phone call worthy considering 30% of cars do that.

Cadillac and their SuperCruise driving system requires eyes on the road by having cameras looking at the drivers face. Don't think hand has to be on the wheel. Though the tinfoil hat brigade won't like the cameras.
