When there is a vehicle detected in the blind spot zone and you do not have the turn signal engaged, the system is designed to light up the LED indicator and will not beep.

They all use microwave radar sensors and are calibrated at the factory. Pioneer did a lot of laboratory and on road testing before they released this to the public. Rest assured it will work great!

Keep in mind it is looking back at a 45° angle, it’s not designed to pick up cars two lanes over 90 degrees to the left or right. It’s aimed exactly to pick up cars as they approach you in the next lane over.
