Acura 2012 TL - Manual (Page 527)

Like all assistance systems, BSI has
limitations. Over-reliance on BSI may
result in a collision. Always look in
your mirrors, to either side of your
vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes. The BSI alert indicators may not
illuminate under the following
circumstances:
The speed difference between
your vehicle and a vehicle
approaching from behind is
greater than 31 mph (50 km/h).
A vehicle is parked in a side lane.
The speed difference between
your vehicle and the vehicle you
are passing is greater than 6 mph
(10 km/h).
An object not detected by the
radar sensors approaches or
passes your vehicle.
BSI may be adversely affected under
the following circumstances:
When objects such as guard rails,
poles, trees, etc., are detected.
When an object that doesn’t
reflect radio waves well, such as a
motorcycle, is in the alert zone.
A vehicle is behind or approaching
your vehicle while on a curved
road.
A vehicle is moving from a far lane
to the adjacent lane.
