The only time I have ever driven a car with cruise control was a few years pre-Covid, when a relative had injured his back and asked me to drive his car to a pre-booked Service and MOT. I had an experiment with this new (to me) feature on the way, and I couldn't get it to engage at any speed below 25mph.
Tech has moved on a lot in the last five years. Radar assisted CC used to be the exception, now it’s more or less standard.

That was the limit on my freelander, from memory
Probably due to the designer's (then) assumption that CC was for motorway cruising and not for creeping around town. I use CC (non-adaptive on our car) on motorways & similar roads, but the speed limiter function, in 20 and 30 mph limits.
According to the manual, my Jazz's cruise control will operate down to
18mph (30kph). I've never tried it that low.
Some Hondas will even do cruise control in a traffic jam
my Skoda does that - it's relaxing for the driver
Yeah, I'd love to have it
