A vehicle compelling force detection apparatus includes one or more processors configured to: obtain, from a first sensor, a road surface disturbance force received from a road surface on which the vehicle drives via a wheel of the vehicle, and store the road surface disturbance force in one or more memories, the first sensor being disposed below a damper supporting the wheel in a direction of gravity; obtain, from a second sensor, a body disturbance force applied to the vehicle, and store the body disturbance force in the one or more memories, the second sensor being disposed above the damper in the direction of gravity; and detect the compelling force due to the wind disturbance to which the vehicle is subjected, based on the body disturbance force applied to the vehicle and the road surface disturbance force, which are stored in the one or more memories.
