A personalized adaptive cruise control (P-ACC) system and associated algorithm are disclosed for determining a driver's preferred following gap in relation to vehicle speed based on periods of steady-state operation of a vehicle. While the P-ACC system is activated, vehicle transition states initiated by driver manual interventions such as takeover or overwrite events are used to identify subsequent periods of vehicle steady-state operation. Vehicle dynamics data captured during periods of steady-state operation is stored as steady-state data, which is then used to train a machine learning model to learn the driver's preferred following gap. This learned relationship is fed into second-order vehicle dynamics to determine a target acceleration for achieving the desired following gap while the P-ACC system is activated. Upon achieving the desired following gap, the vehicle speed may be held constant to maintain the following gap unless a change in lead vehicle speed necessitates updating the following gap.
