Abstract
A detection ECU detects left and right lane lines that define a driving lane from an image captured by an in-vehicle camera, by detecting a roadside as a side of a road where the own vehicle travels, from information of reflected waves received from a radar device. The detection ECU determines whether an estimated width indicating the width of a detected roadside and a detected lane line on a roadside side is narrower than the predetermined width. When the detection ECU determines that the estimated width is narrower than the predetermined width, it sets the predetermined position to be a position distant from the lane line on a roadside side in the estimated driving lane, than when the estimated width is determined not to be narrower than the predetermined width.
