Abstract

A yield amount of a vehicle is given notice of more accurately before two vehicles pass each other. In a driving assistance system, a yield amount calculation unit calculates a yield amount of a first vehicle on the basis of the width of the first vehicle, the width of a second vehicle, the current position of the first vehicle in the width direction detected by a first position detection unit, the passing position predicted by a passing position prediction unit, the road width at the passing position specified by a road width specification unit. The notification unit gives notice of the yield amount of the first vehicle at least in the first vehicle on the basis of the calculation result from the yield amount calculation unit.
