A method and apparatus for controlling speed are provided. The method includes: receiving a first input to display a cruise control menu on a display; in response to receiving the first input, displaying the cruise control menu including a plurality of cruise control submenu items comprising at least two from among a speed increase menu item, a speed decrease menu item, a speed set menu item, a cruise control pause menu item, and a cruise control cancel menu item; receiving a second input, from a unitary input, to initiate a function corresponding to one of the displayed plurality of cruise control submenu items; and in response to receiving the second input, performing the function corresponding to the one of the displayed plurality of cruise control submenu items. The method and apparatus may be used to set a speed of a vehicle by operating a unitary input.

An approach to setting a cruise control speed based on identifying a vehicle operator and analyzing metadata associated with the vehicle operator. The identity of the vehicle operator and any passengers is determined based on identity sensors in the vehicle or by manual identity entry. Metadata, associated with the vehicle operator, is retrieved from the metadata database, located either locally or remotely. The metadata is analyzed based on factors such as the current route and the identity of any passengers. The cruise control speed is set based on the results of the analysis. Any changes to the setting are updated in the metadata database.

A method for controlling a vehicle driving may include determining whether a vehicle is driving at a fixed speed, recording, including detecting a change in a vehicle speed or a state change of a vehicle speed change device while driving and storing a change pattern when the vehicle is driving at the fixed speed, determining a driver's driving intention based on the detected change pattern, and controlling the driving state of the vehicle depending on the determined driving intention.

Systems and methods for displaying information regarding a vehicle on a display device of a vehicle. One system includes a display device, an input device, and an electronic controller including an electronic processor and memory. The electronic controller is configured, during operation of the vehicle, to display, on the display device, information regarding the vehicle in a first display mode of a plurality of available display modes, the first display mode including a first set of information, and, in response to receiving input via the input device while the information is displayed in the first display mode, switch to displaying information regarding the vehicle in a second display mode of the plurality of available display modes. The second display mode includes the first set of information and a second set of information, and the second set of information is configurable.
