An adaptive cruise control system for motor vehicles, including a sensor for measuring the distance to a preceding vehicle and an adaptive cruise controller for calculating control interventions into the drive system and/or braking system of the host vehicle for regulating the distance to a setpoint distance, a detuning parameter being adjustable in the adaptive cruise controller, which determines the intensity of the response of the adaptive cruise controller to control deviations, wherein a traffic jam detection module and a detuning controller which, with the detuning parameter as a manipulated variable, adjust the frequency of control interventions having an intensity above a certain minimum intensity to a setpoint frequency adapted to the traffic jam situation.
