Abstract
A steering assist device includes: a steering torque detector; a steering operation amount acquisition device; an electric power steering device; and a control device configured to calculate a target control current of the electric power steering device, to supply the control current corresponding to the target control current to the electric power steering device, to determine a situation of steering operation of a driver, and to make a current component corresponding to the target inertia compensation assist torque in the target control current smaller when it is determined that the steering operation is turn-back steering with acceleration and deceleration than when it is determined that the steering operation of the driver is not the turn-back steering with acceleration and deceleration.
