uuAcuraWatchTMuTraffic Jam Assist
Driving
Traffic Jam Assist is activated when a ll of the following circumstances exist:
• LKAS is active.
• ACC with Low Speed Follow is active.
• The vehicle speed is between 0 and 45mph (0 and 72km/h) and there is a vehicle
detected traveling ahead.
• The lane in which you are driving has detectable lane markers on both sides, and
your vehicle is in the center of the lane.
• You are driving on a straight or slightly curved road.
• The driver is grippi ng the steering wheel.

u If the vehicle ahead disappears from the travel path of your vehicle, your
vehicle may suddenly accelerate to resume the set speed.
• You are driving in adverse weat her (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
u The system may not be able to correctly determine the interval between your
vehicle and the one ahead.
• The surface of the road is slippery, for example, it is icy or covered with snow.
u The tires may slip, causing you to lose control of the vehicle.
• You are driving in a HOV lane and motorcycles are passing you to the side, or you
are required to keep your vehicle to the right or the left of the lane.
u The system may not be able to co rrectly determine the vehicle ahead.
