Default Why no cruise control indicator?

Am I missing something here? I have looked high and low and there is nothing to tell you the cruise control is activated. Isn't this sort of dangerous if you think about it?

None of the Bonnevilles have that. In fact, I can't think of a GM car I've ever owned that did.

the Bonneville is the only GM car I've owned that doesn't. The Aurora has it, My Riviera had it, and my 88 LeSabre had it too.
