Oooh, I stand corrected. I'd assumed what BMW calls "Dynamic Cruise Control" was the same as every other manufacturer's "Adaptive Cruise Control," but it looks like DCC actually JUST slows the vehicle down on curves or brakes on steep downhill stretches when cruise control is on. "Active" Cruise Control is the one that all the other makers call Adaptive — and it's not standard. That sucks, but in my mind that pretty much makes the Driving Assistance Professional Package a necessity.
