Abstract: A driving support system (1) for motorcycles including: an external sensor unit (2) which recognizes a road state ahead of one's own vehicle; a collision risk determination unit (62) which determines a level of collision risk between one's own vehicle and an object ahead of one's own vehicle based on a recognition result of the external sensor unit 2; an automatic braking control unit (61) which executes automatic braking to automatically operate a brake device (83) in response to the determination result by the collision risk determination unit (62); and a departure risk determination unit (64) which determines a level of departure risk of one's own vehicle to outside of one's own vehicle travel lane in a case of executing the automatic braking. The automatic braking control unit (61) ends execution of the automatic braking in a case of being determined that the departure risk is high.
