Thanks for your patience with a newbie to MB.... Dan

When you approach slower traveling vehicle WITHOUT Distronic you may use your brakes to match speed, too. Don't assume Distronic is braking against same throttle opening--it will reduce throttle, too--just as any cruise control is capable of doing when user uses decel function.
