"crawl control"

My car has 'cruise control' and it's totally pointless. I love driving and once up to a reasonable speed the last thing I require is an electronic device which completely usurps any joy I may be experiencing.

However, when I'm in heavy slow moving, totally bored out of my mind, that's when I need help, that's when I need an on-board gadget that will relive me on the tedium of having to control my vehicle at an average speed of 2 mph, and take over so I can relax and do something else.

Please invent and I will pay, thanks.

I envisioned a simple solution to your problem. Invent a hook device, that would hook your front bumper, to the bumper of the car ahead of you. You can then put your automobile in neutal, shut off the motor, and ride at the same rate as the fellow ahead of you. When you are done with the free ride, it then detaches itself from your neighbour's bumper, you start your motor and put it in gear. Make sure it is retractable.
That will be $500 in Euros please.

I want one of these ... it'd do wonders for my fuel bill!
