An automated driving vehicleincludes: an external information acquisition device configured to acquire external information regarding a state of surroundings of the automated driving vehicle as a vehicle of interest; an on-board communication device configured to receive a risk area notification regarding a high-risk area in a target traffic area; an action plan formulation device configured to formulate an action plan for the vehicle of interest such that a behavior of the vehicle of interest is prevented from exceeding a predetermined behavior allowable range; and a travel control device configured to operate a travel actuator based on the action plan to cause the vehicle of interest to automatically travel. In a case where the vehicle of interest is moving within the high-risk area, the action plan formulation device sets the behavior allowable range to a range associated with the risk area notification.

Automated driving vehicle and traffic safety support system

A predictorof a traffic safety support system includes a movement state information acquirerconfigured to acquire movement state information of the prediction target, a surrounding state information acquirerconfigured to acquire surrounding state information, a first movement state predictorconfigured to predict a first predicted movement state on the basis of the movement state information, a second movement state predictorconfigured to predict a second predicted movement state on the basis of the driver state information, a collision risk calculatorconfigured to calculate a first collision risk value for the first predicted movement state and a second collision risk value for the second predicted movement state, and a support controllerconfigured to execute support control for the prediction target in a case where at least one of the first and second collision risk values is greater than a predetermined threshold value.

Traffic safety support system and storage medium

A predictorpredicts a future of a prediction target in a monitoring area. The predictorincludes a movement state information acquirerconfigured to acquire movement state information, a surrounding state information acquirerconfigured to acquire surrounding state information regarding movement states of traffic participants around the prediction target, a confirmation state information acquirerconfigured to acquire confirmation state information regarding a surrounding confirmation state of a driver of the prediction target, a moving speed predictorconfigured to predict a future moving speed of the prediction target on a basis of the movement state information, the surrounding state information, and the confirmation state information, and a collision predictorconfigured to predict whether or not a collision will occur in a future of the prediction target on the basis of the movement state information, the surrounding state information, and the future moving speed.
