Abstract
An apparatus for controlling a path of a vehicle includes: a path generating processor configured to generate a first path by searching for a path from a current location of the vehicle to a destination and generate a second path by searching for a path from a path deviation prediction area on the first path to the destination based on a request; a path deviation area extracting processor configured to extract the path deviation prediction area based on road attributes on the first path; and a path controller configured to determine whether to generate the second path based on a congestion level of a road around the vehicle and reset a driving path of the vehicle to the second path when path deviation occurs on the extracted path deviation prediction area.
