Control device and control method

A control device controls at least steering of a host vehicle to execute branch control, the branch control including lane keeping control for causing the host vehicle to travel so that the host vehicle does not deviate from a first lane in which the host vehicle travels, and lane change control for causing the host vehicle to change lanes to a second lane branching from the first lane, and stops the lane keeping control and the lane change control when an event in which the branch control is not executable occurs after starting the lane change of the host vehicle from the first lane to the second lane on the basis of the lane change control, in a case in which the host vehicle plans on traveling from the first lane to the second lane through execution of the lane keeping control and the lane change control.

Control device, control method, and storage medium

A driving assistance device in a vehicle, the driving assistance device comprises a control unit configured to perform a lane change from a traveling lane in which the vehicle travels to a branch lane branching from the traveling lane, by driving assistance capable of automatically performing the lane change on an initiative of a system. The control unit acquires a travel distance in the branch lane, an elapsed time in the branch lane, and information indicating passage of an end position of the branch lane detected based on map information or external environment recognition information, after the lane change is completed by crossing a division line of the traveling lane, and ends the driving assistance in the branch lane.

Driving assistance device, vehicle, driving assistance method, and storage medium

A vehicle system restricts causing a host vehicle to perform lane change to a third lane adjacent to a second lane and a first lane and opposite to the second lane without depending on an operation of a driver, when determining that the host vehicle travels in the first lane and the second lane adjacent to the first disappears at a first distance ahead from a position of the host vehicle, and permits causing the host vehicle to perform the lane change to the third lane without depending on an operation of a driver, when the host vehicle reaches a second distance set between the first distance and a position at which the second lane disappears.

Vehicle system, control method, and storage medium

A vehicle system executes a first operation of presenting lane change to an adjacent lane adjacent to a lane in which a host vehicle travels to a driver without considering of guiding the host vehicle to a set destination, and causing the host vehicle to perform the lane change on the basis of an instruction of the driver, a second operation for proposing a lane change required for guidance of the host vehicle to the destination to the driver and causing the host vehicle to perform a lane change on the basis of approval of the proposal by the driver, and a third operation for stopping presenting and proposing the lane change in a set period between the first operation and the second operation when a plan is to execute the second operation after the first operation.
