Abstract
The driving support ECU performs a steering control for changing a steering angle in such a manner that an own vehicle travels along a target path. When a state in which holding state information does not satisfy a first condition continues for a first time threshold or more, the ECU starts a first alert and continues the steering control. The holding state information includes information indicative of a steering torque and represents a holding state of a steering handle by a driver. When a state in which the holding state information does not satisfy a second condition for a second time threshold or more after the first alert is started, the ECU starts a deceleration control. The second condition is a condition satisfied when the holding state information indicates that the driver holds the steering handle more firmly than when the holding state information satisfies the first condition.
