Abstract
To control a speed at a time of entering a curved road a vehicle to autonomously travel within a travelling lane even in a case where there is an error in an estimated longitudinal position of the vehicle. A curve travel speed calculation unitcalculates a curve travel speed for a vehicle to autonomously travelling in a travelling lane based on a curve radius and an estimated error in longitudinal position. A speed planning unitand a travel control unitdecelerate the vehicle M such that the speed of the vehicle M becomes the curve travel speed at the time of entering the curved road in front of the vehicle M in a case where the speed of the vehicle M is equal to or higher than the curve travel speed and the curve travel speed is equal to or higher than the reference speed.
