Why not get into the habit of using the switch on the steering column, that's what it's there for.

Sooty, Ag4ever answered your question. I like to give a little tap so that people know I'll be slowing down. I realize that if I were driving without cruise and then took my foot off the gas they wouldn't have the brake lights, but for some reason (not rational) it feels different when I turn off the cruise.
Anyhow, after a couple of times that I thought I'd be coasting when I wasn't I've now gotten into the habit of using the stalk. Regardless, even if there's another method, just tapping the brake should be sufficient. Why would someone want to hit the brake, regardless of how hard, and continue to use the cruise?
