RDX safety features question
For the MY2018 RDX safety features below, do they only work at certain speed range?
-Collision Mitigation Braking System
-Forward Collision Warning System
-Adaptive Cruise Control
-Lane Departure Warning
-Lane Keeping Assist System
-Blind Spot Information
-Parking Sensor System
Also, can the Collision Mitigation Braking System detect pedestrians?
Thank you.

Yes the CMBS can detect pedistrians.
CMBS
With CMBS turn on, will activate under the following conditions: 3 mph or more speed differences between you and an object and/or pedistrian with a chance of collision and your vehicle traveling speed is below 63 mph.
Note: Technically the CMBS is not design to prevent a collision or to stop the car. If it does that's awesome. There is no guarantee that it will do that. CMBS is design to minimize the severity of an unavoidable collision... nothing more.
FCWS
If the FCWS detects a collision is imminent it will trigger a brake warning on the MID and an audible alert, nothing more. The system doesn't apply the brakes. Any evasive action is done by the driver.
ACC
Available at 25 mph or more and automatically cancels below 22 mph and no longer apply the brakes.
LDW
LDW on, turn signal off, active between 45-90 mph on a relatively straight road.
LKAS
LKAS on, active between 45-90 mph, suspends after hands are not in contact with streering wheel accompany by a visual warning on the MID and resumes when hands are back in contact with streering wheel. Designed for the U.S. road structure.
BSI
2 stages
1. 3 LEDs warning lights on at the corresponding A Piller side when a car is around the car's blind spot.
2. The 3 LEDs blink and an audio warning when the turn signal is activated and a car is around the car's blind spot. The BSI is disabled at approximately 20 mph.
PSS
With the PSS on, when the PSS senses an object when you're parking or backing up, indicators appears on the upper display and a series of beeps sound. As you get closer to the object the beep rate increases.
Note, all systems are design to be use in good weather and not a substitute for an attentive driver.

I have summarized the speed range for the safety features below. Curious to know how Acura's speed range compare to other car makers. I remember reading that some adaptive cruise control work for speed all the way down to zero.
Thank you.
-Collision Mitigation Braking System - active when speed is below 63 mph
-Adaptive Cruise Control - active when speed is 25 mph or more
-Lane Departure Warning - active when speed is between 45-90 mph
-Lane Keeping Assist System - active when speed is between 45-90 mph
-Blind Spot Information - active when speed is between 20-100 mph
