Abstract
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for controlling a vehicle in an autonomous driving system that controls platooning. A method of controlling a first vehicle that transports passengers in an autonomous driving system that controls platooning according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: receiving boarding/alighting information of the passengers from a server; determining a first platoon formation of platooning vehicles that travel in the same lane in a platoon on the basis of the boarding/alighting information; transmitting information about the first platoon formation to other vehicles included in the platoon; checking an object moving adjacent to the lane; and transmitting an object block instruction message, which changes the platoon formation into a second platoon formation such that a block distance between at least one vehicle included in the platoon and a sidewalk becomes smaller than a width of the object, to other vehicles included in the platoon.
