ABSTRACT:
A vehicle cruise control device in the form of a Bowden cable connection to the engine throttle so as to be movable therewith as the operator controls the accelerator pedal, and a locking device selectively movable to various predetermined positions at which it can capture the cable connection and prevent the throttle from returning to closed position while still allowing normal opening of the throttle. The cruise speed is adjusted by selecting the predetermined position at which the locking device captures the cable connection. An inertial mass responds to braking or deceleration force on the vehicle to release the cable connection from its captured condition.
