Abstract

A notice management apparatus controls a notice instrument that provides a notice to an occupant of a vehicle. The notice instrument is mounted to the vehicle together with a vehicle control apparatus that achieves an assistance function assisting a lane change of the vehicle. The notice management apparatus includes a start time obtainer section and a notice adjuster section. The start time obtainer section obtains the information which indicates a steering start point of time at which the vehicle control apparatus starts a lane change of the vehicle. The notice adjuster section causes the notice instrument to provide continuously a notice indicating a decrease in a residual period of time up to the steering start point of time obtained by the start time obtainer section.
