INGLEWOOD, Calif. - Driving without your hands on the steering wheel while driving a heavy-duty pickup weighing over 6,000 pounds on the 105 in Los Angeles seems like a profoundly bad idea. Having it hooked up to a trailer that could weigh at least twice as much seems like … well, whatever is at least twice as worse as “profoundly bad.” Irredeemably stupid?

As a brief recap, Super Cruise is GM’s name for its advanced driver assistance system that will automatically accelerate, brake, keep its distance to the vehicle ahead, keep itself centered in its lane and even automatically change lanes without the driver having contact with the steering wheel or pedals. The driver must simply set the speed and following distance, and crucially, maintain eye contact with the road ahead.

How does it know all that? Simple, really. It knows a trailer is connected because it’s almost certainly wired into the truck, and even if it wasn’t, the parking sensors can tell something’s back there. The weight estimate is then measured by engine and brake strain relative to the truck’s base gross vehicle weight.
