Abstract

A vehicle travel control apparatus includes an anomaly monitoring section for determining, through monitoring, whether or not a driver is in an anomalous state in which the driver has lost his or her ability to drive the vehicle, and a deceleration section for automatically stopping the vehicle by decelerating the vehicle after a final anomaly determined time which is a point in time when the anomaly monitoring section finally determines that the driver is in the anomalous state. The deceleration section prohibits deceleration of the vehicle in the case where the deceleration section determines that the vehicle is present in the deceleration prohibited section after the final anomaly determination time.
