    Abstract: A cruise control device applied to a vehicle including a target detection unit and including a following control unit includes a determination unit configured to determine, during the period of execution of following control, whether a small vehicle switching state in which a following target is a small vehicle has occurred or not, an upper limit storage unit configured to store, as an upper limit value, a target acceleration set before determination as the small vehicle switching state by the determination unit under a condition where the determination unit determines that the small vehicle switching state has occurred, and a target acceleration setting unit configured to set the target acceleration to equal to or lower than the upper limit value stored in the upper limit storage unit during a period until the following control performed for the switched small vehicle as the following target ends.

    Abstract: When a turn signal of an own vehicle is operated when following a preceding vehicle, a vehicle control device performs a preceding vehicle following control to accelerate the own vehicle interlocking with the operation of the turn signal. The vehicle control device includes: an adjacent vehicle information acquisition unit that acquires adjacent vehicle information as information on an adjacent vehicle running in front of the own vehicle in an adjacent lane next to a running lane of the own vehicle; and an acceleration control unit that, when the turn signal of the own vehicle is operated, controls acceleration of the own vehicle based on the adjacent vehicle information.

    Abstract: A traveling control apparatus detects a target object that is present ahead in a travelling direction of an own vehicle and is not present in an own traffic lane or within an own vehicle width. This control apparatus detects a relative speed of the target object relative to the own vehicle along the travelling direction. The control apparatus sets a target acceleration of the own vehicle along the travelling direction. The control apparatus enables the own vehicle to travel at the set target acceleration and to pass a side of the target object. In response to the relative speed being equal to or greater in magnitude than a first threshold that is a predetermined negative value, the control apparatus sets the target acceleration to be within a range from the first threshold speed to a second threshold speed that is a predetermined negative value that is greater in magnitude than the first threshold speed.

    Abstract: A vehicle control system includes a preceding vehicle selector that selects a pair of preceding vehicles, a target pair recognizer that executes a pairing process of storing a distance between a first target and a second target belonging to the respective preceding vehicles as an offset, and an intervehicular distance setter that sets both of a distance between an own vehicle and a first target as an intervehicular distance when the first target and the second target are detected as a target pair, and a distance corrected based on the offset as an intervehicular distance when the first target out of the target pair is not detected. The target pair recognizer stores a history of determination parameters including at least one of changes in relative distance, relative speed, and lateral deviation amount between the first and second targets.

    Abstract: A traveling control apparatus performs a target-following control process on a target to be followed detected by a target detecting unit. Further, the traveling control apparatus calculates a probability that the target to be followed is within an own lane, and determines whether a degree of recognition by the target detecting unit of the target to be followed is in a weakly recognized state where the degree of recognition is weaker than a predetermined degree. The apparatus sets a reliability of the target to be followed on the basis of the probability calculated by a probability calculating process and a determination result by a determining process, and controls acceleration of an own vehicle so that a jerk which is a differential value of the acceleration becomes smaller as the reliability of the target to be followed is lower while the target-following control process is performed.
