The advice of EXPERTS is do NOT use cruise
control in reduced traction conditions, and even
using OVERDRIVE is not advised under those
conditions.

Reduced traction also occurs on wet pavement in clear weather - still
a TRACTION issue - and my Taurus will shift into OD at 35 - 40MPH when
warm under light load.
