It's cruise control. It does dumb things. Standard transmission (on cruise) does things similar to that.
I don't use cruise control ever since I read that it's bad for the engine (keeping same speed for long periods of time). Keep the engine guessing on the highway (different speeds but still keeping good MPG's). Going with the traffic is also a good idea.
Cheers!
