Abstract
A vehicle that is remotely operable by an operator is provided. The vehicle includes a communication circuit that receives a vehicle operation signal including an accelerator input value based on a first operation performed by the operator, a steering angle sensor that measures a steering angle of the vehicle, a speed sensor that measures a speed of the vehicle, and a processor. The processor corrects the accelerator input value such that when the absolute value of an angular measure of the steering angle is greater than or equal to a predetermined angular measure and the speed is greater than zero, the accelerator input value is corrected so as to reduce the speed to a value that is less than when the absolute value of the angular measure of the steering angle is less than the first predetermined angular measure and the speed is greater than zero.
