Abstract: A vehicle control device has a processor configured to determine whether a first road exists where the vehicle is to exit from the traveling road, and when a first road exists, to set a lane change schedule zone based on a first connecting location, to determine whether a second road located on the same side of the traveling direction of the vehicle as the first road exists between the current location of the vehicle and the first connecting location, to change a start location of the lane change schedule zone based on a second connecting location, when a second road exists and the start location of the lane change schedule zone is at a second connecting location, or before the second connecting location, and to notify the driver of the plan to move the vehicle between lanes while the vehicle is traveling in the lane change schedule zone.

Abstract: A vehicle control device has a processor configured to determine whether or not there exists a branching location where the vehicle is to exit from the traveling in a predetermined driving zone of a navigation route and, when a branching location exists, to determine whether or not a control transfer request zone exists in which the driver is to be given a request to transfer driving of the vehicle from automatic control to manual control, within a first distance on the branching road from the branching location, or a second distance on the traveling road from the branching location in the traveling direction of the vehicle, and when the control transfer request zone exists, to notify the driver via a notification unit, before the vehicle reaches the branching location, that the vehicle is to be moved from the traveling road to the branching road by manual control.

Abstract: A vehicle controller detects a travel lane on which a vehicle is traveling, and determines whether the position of the detected travel lane relative to an edge of a road may differ from an actual position. The vehicle controller further identifies first control of the vehicle required on the travel lane and second control of the vehicle required on an adjoining lane. The vehicle controller transfers control of the vehicle to a driver in the case where the position of the detected travel lane may differ from the actual position and where both the first control and the second control may compromise safety of the vehicle or prevent completion of a predetermined action to be completed before reaching a predetermined distance.

Abstract: A vehicle control device has a processor configured to generate a first traveling lane plan representing the traveling lane in which the vehicle is traveling within a first driving zone of a navigation route, to generate a first lane change plan representing movement of the vehicle between lanes, based on the first traveling lane plan or on surrounding environment information and, when the first lane change plan has been generated, to determine whether or not there exists a control transfer request zone at less than a first reference distance from the location of the vehicle on the post-movement traffic lane, or a lane change schedule zone at less than a second reference distance, and the first lane change plan is cancelled when such a control transfer request zone or lane change schedule zone exists.

Abstract: A vehicle controller determines whether the position of a detected travel lane relative to an edge of a road being traveled by a vehicle may differ from an actual position; estimates a first required time for an action, which is required before the vehicle reaches a predetermined location, for the case that the position of the detected lane relative to the edge of the road is correct; estimates a second required time for the action for the case that the position of the detected lane differs from the actual position by a predetermined number of lanes; and sets start timing of the action, based on the second required time, so that the action will finish before the vehicle reaches the predetermined location, when the position of the detected lane may differ from the actual position and the second required time is longer than the first required time.

Abstract: A vehicle control device has a processor configured to determine whether a difficult traveling zone exists between a lane change completion location and a current location of the vehicle, to calculate a first distance between an end point of the difficult traveling zone in the traveling direction of the vehicle and the lane change completion location when the difficult traveling zone exists, to determine whether the first distance is at least a reference distance, and to decide to execute a lane change for movement of the vehicle to the target lane after the vehicle has passed through the difficult traveling zone when the first distance is at least the reference distance or to decide to execute a lane change for movement of the vehicle to the target lane before the vehicle reaches the difficult traveling zone when the first distance is less than the reference distance.

Abstract: A vehicle controller includes a processor configured to detect a lane on which a vehicle is traveling, determine whether the position of the detected lane relative to an edge of a road being traveled by the vehicle may differ from an actual position, identify first control of the vehicle required to execute on the detected lane and second control of the vehicle required to execute on an adjoining lane adjoining the detected lane, omit to execute the first control when the position of the detected lane may differ from the actual position and the first control is prohibited on the adjoining lane, and execute the second control when the position of the detected lane may differ from the actual position and the second control exists.
