Abstract
In the case an external environment recognition unit recognizes that an obstacle that hinders traveling of an oncoming vehicle exists in an oncoming lane at a more forward position in a direction of progress than a host vehicle, and also recognizes that a preceding vehicle exists at a more forward position in the direction of progress than the obstacle, and further, in the case that a behavior determination unit determines that the preceding vehicle stops within a predetermined distance (first predetermined distance) from the obstacle, the operation determination unit causes the host vehicle to stop in front of the obstacle.
