Abstract
A travel control device for a host vehicle determines whether or not the presence of the vehicle prevents an external object, having the intension of moving from a second side lane to a first side lane, from crossing a host vehicle lane. Upon determining that the presence of the host vehicle prevents the external object from crossing the host vehicle lane, the travel control device moves the host vehicle to create a space for the external object to cross the host vehicle lane.
